Saturday is the last day of May and it marks the last day of Meteorological Spring.

The official end of Spring and start of Summer in Chicago is June 20th at 6:00 PM CDT.

Either way Spring will end with a bang. Friday and Saturday, the final two days of May, could be stormy and warmer than average. So far this May has been a cooler and wetter month than normal courtesy of a deteorating La Nina pattern.

Many of you have e-mailed with one simple question...."WHEN WILL WE WARM UP"?

It looks like by mid-June we will get back to a more normal summer pattern.

One positive note about our dreary Spring of 2008.......we have had less severe weather than usual.  Unfortunately our neighboring states to the west and south are headed toward a record year for tornadoes and tornado deaths.

So let's get ready to celebrate Summer. It begins in 23 days.

If you have any special Summer plans share them with us here.

As always have a great week.
