CHICAGO (CBS) One of the hottest days of the year was on tap for Monday, as temperatures were expected to reach a high of 92 degrees in Chicago, with heat indexes that could push past 105 in much of the Chicago area.
CHICAGO (CBS) Of all Midwest states, there is only one in which spending $100 doesn t go as far as it should: Illinois.
+
As of 6 a.m., it was already 79 degrees at Midway International Airport, although the official Chicago <a href=http://www.radiorcs.com/page.php?sale=Kate-Spade-Warehouse-Sale>Kate Spade Warehouse Sale</a>  temperature at O鈥橦are International Airport was slightly cooler at 77 degrees.
According to the Tax Foundation, when a resident of Illinois spends $100, they get $99.40 in actual value. That actually means that the worth of $100 here is just slightly less than the national average, but other states in the <a href=http://www.cardiovalens.com/EURO04/Plastic-Carrier-Bags-Wholesale-Uk-Radley-Bags-On-Sale-Trash-Bags-Wholesale.html>Plastic Carrier Bags Wholesale Uk</a>  region provide better value.

CBS 2 Meteorologist Megan Glaros reports the humidity was inordinately high Monday morning. As temperatures continue to rise throughout the day, past 90 degrees, the heat index could climb as high as 105 across most of the area, and up to 109 in the far southern and western suburbs.
For example, Iowa is a low-price state, where $100 will buy what would cost $111.73 in another state that is closer to the national average, like Illinois.
+
Temperatures should reach about 90 degrees by noon, with <a href=http://www.alportico.net/page.php?sale=True-Religion-Sophie-Shorts>True Religion Jeans For Men</a>  a heat index of about 100.  
You can think of this as meaning that Iowans are about 11 percent richer than their incomes would suggest,

The hot and muggy conditions have prompted Cook County officials to warn residents of an increased risk of heat-related stress and illness, particularly for very young children, the elderly, and anyone participating in strenuous activities outside.
The states where $100 is worth the least are the District of Columbia ($84.60), Hawaii ($85.32), New York ($86.66), New Jersey ($87.64), and <a href=http://www.parajumpersjackenoutlet.de>parajumpers damen</a>  California ($88.57).  
+
Officials said people should stay indoors as much as possible, limit exposure to the sun, and drink plenty of water but avoid caffeinated beverages or alcohol. People also should wear loose-fitting, lightweight, and light-colored clothing.
That same money goes the furthest in Mississippi ($115.74), Arkansas ($114.16), Missouri ($113.51), Alabama (113.51), and South Dakota ($113.38).
+
For those without air conditioning, many public buildings serve as cooling centers during the summer, including police stations and public libraries in Chicago. The city鈥檚 Department of Family Support Services also operates six designated cooling centers:
Aside from Iowa and Missouri, here is the added value of $100 of other neighbor states: Indiana ($109.77), Wisconsin ($107.64), and Kentucky ($112.61).

In Michigan, which is a tremendously popular destination for people from <a href=http://www.styledepth.com/test.php?sale=Gucci-Rain-Boots>White Gucci Bag</a>  the Chicago area, people get $105.93 in value for $100 spent.

The Tax Foundation, the non-partisan, conservative leading think tank, used data from the Bureau of Economic Analysis to adjust the U.S. average value of $100 to reflect how prices are different in each state. (Click on the image to enlarge).
