Winter Officially postponed until late January

This just in. Winter in Chicago has been postponed from December 21st for approximately 30 days. Every day has been clear and sunny in the 40s and 50s. I don't recall being out in shorts this time of year here. The entire city has turned out for running and biking during this unusual respite. Undoubtedly we shall pay later, but until then I am out on the lakefront exploring side trails that are usually sheet of ice by now.
