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!

Doubled Tax Increases!?

Earlier this year, Illinois Gov. J.B. Pritzker pushed against the gas tax increase by placing a 6 month hold on the scheduled hike. His goal was to relieve Illinois families from further financial stress. As published by My State Line reporter, John Clark, “Pritzker hoped that the initiative might ease the effects of inflation on residents.” Initially postponed to January 1 of this year, a bill coming from Springfield has proposed that the hike in gas tax be pushed back an additional 6 months.  Across the country, gas prices are decreasing; but Illinois remains number two in terms of how much its residents have to pay to fill up their tanks. With California in the lead, Illinois’ prices show no real stopping point. Without taking the increases into consideration, Illinois still comes in with second place for highest gas taxing. Illinois Policy’s assistant editor, Dylan Sharkey, reported that “gas tax hikes disproportionately hurt lower-income residents, who give up a larger percent...
