Yes, Illinois, June was hot, but not the hottest
CHAMPAIGN – If the sweat on your brow wasn't proof enough, the Illinois Water Survey confirms that, indeed, June was extremely hot.
But State Climatologist Jim Angel points out that it wasn't the hottest June ever. Not even close.
The average temperature across the state last month was 72.9 degrees. That was pushed up by the string of 90- and 100-degree days that baked Illinois as the month closed.
