Benefits and Beauty of Illinois Weather

Illinois weather brings a wide variety of impressive benefits and beauty each day.

This spring has been an exceptional season for weather. Warm, clear days moved farmers to their fields early. Later rains contributed to excellent germination conditions.

Now, Midwestern variances in the weather continue to provide moisture as crops take root.

One incredible result of quickly-moving storm fronts is character in the clouds.
