Be glad you're not experiencing the swing of temps we just endured. Yesterday and last night we was enjoying a windy 50 degree day to only wake up to an ice glazed 9 degree's with below zero wind chills .. BRRRRRR.... :D ;) . Accidents all over the highways, especially on and off ramps.

Oh yeah, Chicago I'm talking about, with a little California dreamin'
