It's a chilly holiday for some but just another Monday for others. Either way, it's also Martin Luther King Day as well as the National Day of Service. If you'd like to get involved but aren't sure how, here's a list of events going on around the Chicago area today that you can get involved in. And what kind of weather will you have to volunteer in? It'll be cold with highs only creeping just past 20 degrees and a wind chill value very close to 0. There's also a chance of flurries this afternoon, but more snow will move in tonight. Lows will fall to the lower teens but new snow accumulations are expected to be less than half an inch. Unless you live in northwest Indiana where you're under a lake-effect snow advisory.
