It's still hot, but the extreme heat moves east

The extreme heat and humidity we've felt the past two days has now begun to shift a little further east today as a weak cool front slides in from the northwest.  This will help provide some relief from the heat, although it is still going to be very hot out this afternoon.

An Excessive Heat Warning continues for Carroll, Whiteside, Winnebago, Ogle, Boone, McHenry, Lee and DeKalb counties through this evening while a Heat Advisory continues to Rock and Walworth counties.  Jo Daviess, Stephenson and Green counties have been dropped from the advisory/warning because the cool front has already pushed through.  This front will be the focus of possibly a few storms later this afternoon and overnight.
