Large portions of the Midwest including Will County have been experiencing severely milder temperatures compared to weeks prior and it's getting many excited for the upcoming fall season.


CNN Meteorologist, Jennifer Gray says, “By the way, the fall equinox is on September 22 (even though meteorological fall began on September 1), and we all know it means nothing when it comes to Mother Nature, so if you are one of the lucky ones experiencing this false fall, ENJOY!” It may technically still be summer, but the recent temperatures do not reflect the notion of summer. This is due to the showers along the front. According to an article by erienewsnow.com, Rockford, Illinois recorded 4.34 inches of rain on Sunday. This rainfall also affected surrounding counties such as Will County. Residents of Will County can thank these showers while reaching for their jacket as temperatures are hitting 50s and 60s. June, July, and August 2022 brought on sizzling heat and left Will County in need of some cooler temperatures so these numbers are a pleasant surprise for many. 


Gray says, “The tiny cool blast will only be for portions of the country. And as much as my heart wants to tell you its here to stay, it wont. Sadly, it's going to be such a quick shot of amazing air, if we blink, we might miss it.” According to weather.com, the high for Joliet on September 13th is 76 degrees whereas the high for September 19th will be 88 degrees. It's obvious by this over 10 degree jump that summer is not over yet.


Take advantage of the next few days because warm weather will be back relatively soon. Maybe pull out the layers and give people a preview of your fall fashion!

First Lion Electric School Bus in Joliet

 Noëllie Inard Credit: www.chicagotribune.com  On Wednesday, November 2nd, Lion Electric announced the end of the production of its first LionC zero-emission electric school bus at its Joliet factory. In May 2021, Lion Electric, a Canadian-based manufacturer of commercial vehicles, selected Joliet to hold its future US manufactory due to a growing demand for electric school buses in the United States. Lion Electric positioned itself to help school districts with the transition to electric buses with the help of the EPA Clean Bus Program which funded the project with $5 billion. The EPA Clean Bus Program is part of the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law, a law that the Congress recently passed under President Joe Biden and which aimed to invest “ in [the] nation’s infrastructure and competitiveness,” according to the White House. The company’s efforts have paid off since they have now 700 electric vehicles on the road.       Lion Electric promised on January 2022...
