Steamy side of town
Monday, 16 October 2006
The Sun-Times has published a map (PDF) of the urban heat island (using infrared satellite data) that DPD and the Park District are apparently using to prioritize tree-planting efforts. The west side is indeed the hottest part of town; oddly, many areas along the river are pretty consistently warm.
