It'd be a great day to stay inside under the warm covers of our bed...if it weren't a weekday. Damn. While we recover from being eaten by the rain monster lingering snow showers will fall throughout the morning and blustery winds of up to 20 mph will make it feel colder than the mid-20's that it'll be. Skies will remain cloudy tonight with lows near 20. As for yesterday, 1.9 inches of rain was recorded at O'Hare, shattering the previous record for February 26 (0.92 inches). But just be glad it wasn't colder: the amount of rain that fell would have translated to roughly 20 inches of snow.
