Is it supposed to be midsummer or late spring in Chicago, because we're looking at the weather forecasts from Skilling Central and Accuweather and see highs topping out in the mid-70s today. We're not complaining, mind you. Any forecast that allows us to shut off fans, let alone the air conditioning, is cause for celebration.

The beach hazard statement and small craft advisory is still in effect until 4 p.m. There are plenty of photos in the Chicagoist Flickr pool of waves crashing on the lakefront trail; keep those coming.
