20 degrees...1/4" snow cover with more falling (pretty light tho') and a light wind.Supposed to hit 30 with scattered flurries throughout the day.I think I'll wax my truck under the shade tree today.

So what do you guys think? You think we are done with crappy days or are there bad days ahead of us still?

LOTS of time for crappy days ahead.It'll start warming down here in early March and then go back and forth for a month and THEN we can start tornado spotting. 
24 degrees BEAUTIFUL clear starry night.No wind.

There will be some crappy days ahead, no doubt. BUT, with that being said, the closer we get to April, the better things will become. High temps will progress a bit from here on out, if not slowly. Sunshine levels will increase, and snowfall levels will plummet. You can expect a tiny bit of snow in April, but it doesnt last longer than a day, sometimes not even a few hours.
With that aside, it was yet another cloudless day. I want to know where all the "Chicago's winters are nothing but gray, gray, gray, gray" crowd is? Coulda fooled me! Ive seen PLENTY of bright, beautiful, cloudless winter days so far.
