Finally! Some Relief From The Heat

September is officially in the books, and it broke a streak that has been in the books for a while.

The average temperature in Rockford for September was 62.9 degrees, which was one degree below normal. That's the first time we've seen below normal temperatures for a month in about a year! Big surprise, you have to go back to the 1930s to find a similar streak.

It looks like the start of October will reflect those cooler temperatures we saw in September. Despite some seasonable weather to start the week, a cold front on Thursday will knock temperatures well into the 50s as we head towards the weekend.
