Holly Moses...32 Degrees...In Chicago Area..7am Jan 7... [View all]

A low temp for last nite..32 degrees, Jan 7..that would be an average temp low for late March or Early April..
Yes, this happens occasionally, but yesterday low temp was 40..We have had several days where the
temps have been 15 to 20 degrees above normal for January..usually our coldest month..

Average low temp is 17 at night and high is.. 28 in day.
Yesterday's high temp..55..oh well........

that is only 27 degrees above normal for this date...

No such thing as climate change..sure.......
