IT'S WINTER IN CHICAGO

I have heard many people complaining about the weather lately. We have to remember that it is winter in Chicago and that this cold and messy weather could be here for 2 more months! So we have to look on the bright side; we can build many more snowmen, the trees are absolutely beautiful and the kids can sled for many hours in the snow. Also, it could be worse look at these
February statistics:

Chicago snow extremes in February(1885-2007)

snowiest February ... 27.8" in 1896
biggest February snowstorm ... 13.4" Feb. 6-7, 1895
least snowy February ... 0.0" in 1987&1998 - HOW BORING!

So let's consider ourselves lucky because very soon we're going to hear "It's not the heat, it's the humidity." Have a wonderful wintery evening.
