A Nostalgic Polar Vortex Christmas Scene
The Chicago Tribune reports, “As subzero cold hits, wind chill advisory for Wednesday night, Thursday morning“.
With overnight temperatures dropping well below zero, the National Weather
Service has issued a wind chill advisory for Wednesday night through Thursday morning.
The advisory is in effect from 9 p.m. Wednesday until 10 a.m. Thursday. The weather service said wind chills could reach minus 30 in some areas. It warned people could suffer frostbite in as little as 30 minutes.
One happy corollary, the sub-freezing temperatures slow Chiraq’s murder rate down a bit. Once the sun comes out, and things warm up again…maybe not so much.

From the DailyMail, “Get ready for the chill! Forecasters predict temperatures could fall 35 degrees BELOW average as a polar plunge sweeps across the country”.
People across the country and digging into their closets for gloves and scarves ahead of the arrival of the first polar plunge of the season this week.
In what is being described as the coldest arctic blast since last winter, cities as far apart as Seattle and Chicago are expecting to cop a snow-coating in the coming days.
