It's more like late-September or early-October than mid-August outside. Unseasonably cool temps are the story of the weekend, just two weeks removed from one scorcher of a Lollapalooza weekend. The forecast today calls for mostly cloudy skies, but if conditions at the Chicagoist HQ at around 9 a.m. this morning are any indication, there aren't a whole heckuva lot of clouds around. Highs should top out around 70 and lows tonight, under partly cloudy skies, will be in the mid-50s. Oh, and happy birthday, GZA!
