The average high temperature for Rockford peaks mid July, warming into the mid 80's (85 degrees to be exact). But that number is beginning to fall, and will continue to do so until the end of the year. By the time fall begins on September 21st, the average high will have fallen to 73 degrees. And by the time the Winter Solstice arrives, the average high will be right around 31 degrees!
Not only are we losing ground with the temperatures, but in daylight too. The sun came up today, July 24th, at 5:42am and set at 8:24pm. But on December 21st, the Winter Solstice, the sun will rise at 7:22am and set at 4:27pm. On the bright side, days slowly get longer after December 21st.
