Today is looking pretty damn spectacular, even more so because the calendar claims it's still August. Partly cloudy skies and temps in the low 70s with little humidity make it feel positively spring-like during The Summer That Wasn't. Fair conditions continue into the evening hours and temps fall into the upper 50s. The week ahead looks like a quick spike in heat early on before falling again by next weekend. We'd be remiss in not wishing former Bears QB Rex Grossman a happy birthday.
