With the hubbub the local media was making last evening, we were expecting to wake up in a Chicago á la the tundra. However, we were pleasantly surprised to see a manageable amount on the ground for our morning commute. In the harsh wind and light snow, we went by the Hancock to take a few pictures of the building enveloped in fog, as our lens was dusted with flakes. Today felt like the first “real snow” of the season, and with that, came the first feelings of a bona fide Chicago winter.
