Summary

[edit]
Description

The first federal weather office was established in Chicago by the Army Signal Service in 1870 with observations taken continuously since then, except for a fourteen day period in 1871 following the Great Chicago Fire. Today, the Chicago National Weather Service Forecast Office is located in Romeoville, Illinois, about 30 miles southwest of downtown Chicago. The office proudly serves a population of about 9 million people in northern Illinois and northwest Indiana and provides forecasts for the nation’s busiest airspace, as well as mariners across Lake Michigan.
