We have another six weeks of political campaigns ahead of us. Hopefully it will be warmer when the polls open again. Hopefully Mayor Emanuel and Chuy Garcia are dressed for the weather as they start their runoff campaigns at "L" stops today. The sun is also bright in the sky as we head toward a 20 degree day. The sunshine won't last as the clouds will thicken, threaten some snow and keep the overnight lows holding in the high teens as the arctic winds that have made this a record setting cold February continue to dominate the weather patterns.

But there is light at the end of the tunnel. But the time the weekend arrives the mercury will begin to rebound and rise to highs near average for this time of year.
