This editorial context comes from broad state climate guidance, not from the customer or estimate record. Illinois is categorized here as a continental climate (humid summers, cold winters, and frequent severe-storm activity across the central plains). For general awning planning, independently verify product ratings for the regional wind exposure (high, with derecho events on record), UV load (moderate), mounting surface, and local code requirements.
