Today I looked at my little Facebook “On This Day” feature, which shows what I was doing on this day in years past. This time last year I was embarking on a six-mile hike on a 72 degree day. As I look out my window now, however, I’ve got snow flurries and it’s around 28 degrees out. Not ideal.
It’s less ideal in Chicago today. Right now it’s 33 and snowing in the Windy City an the snow is likely to keep up for another hour or so. Today’s high: 37. Maybe. Here’s what it looked like this morning:
