A 50-degree day didn't stop people across Chicago from enjoying a day on Park District ice rinks and a drop in the mercury today should fare even better for skating conditions. We have a cold front entering the area bringing with it some gray skies and temps in the 40s so we won't see the long shadows that danced on the rink at McKinley Park Saturday. The clouds will stick with us at least through midweek and may bring rain by Wednesday.
