Arlington Heights and nearby northwest suburbs seem to be the hot spot for March 15, 2012 temperatures with Palatine, Elk Grove, Arlington Heights and Wheeling definitely in the low 80’s. The “Pneumonia Front” was a no show for inland areas of Chicagoland. The front, also known as a back-door cold front has only slipped lightly inland near Waukegan, Highland Park and Wilmette. Forecasters are still keeping an eye out for dense fog, but the fog does not seem to be materializing. For a while fog and 60’s was forecast for Arlington Heights tomorrow, but as of 6:00 p.m., Arlington Heights is again forecast for another day in the upper 70’s with partly sunny skies.
Today marks another record high (80°F), which was previously 74°F on March 15, 1995. Today marks three consecutive days of official temperatures in the 70’s.
