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!

A New Board Game Coffee Shop in Shorewood: The Critical Grind

 Noëllie Inard Credit: www.criticalgrind.com  On Thursday, November 10th, a new cafe named the Critical Grind Board Game Café opened in Shorewood, Illinois. This coffee shop is a little different from cafes already opened in the Joliet, Plainfield and Shorewood areas. Situated on 852 Sharp Drive in the Sharp Center off Black Road near Route 59 in Shorewood, the coffee shop, previously owned by a kickboxing studio, is close to the Bliss Hair Studio. The owners, Dana Buxbaum and her husband Shaun Tenant, mixed what they loved to create their idea of the perfect coffee shop. “I always wanted a coffee shop,” said Dana Buxbaum, “My husband and I combined our love of gaming with my vision of the coffee shop.” The coffee shop has made available bookshelves full of games such as Clue, The Serial Killer Trivia Game, Sorry, Dragoon and many more. In an interview with Patch editor, Buxbaum stated that they have “[...] about 400 games in [their] library” with family-friendly and inclusive...
  Rory Richards Facebook Certain Fields From Profile Bios, Including “Religious Views”; Does Not Say Why Facebook has announced plans to remove certain fields from profile bios. Starting on December 1, users will no longer be presented with an option to list their sexual orientation, their political views, their address, or their religious views on their personal profiles. Facebook did not provide an explanation for this decision. The decision was announced one week after Meta, the parent company of Facebook, fired 11,000 employees, 13% of its total workforce; whether or not these two events are correlated, however, remains unclear.
