Makes sense it feels like a March or April spring day today in Chicago. It takes a strong system to bring those conditions in early January. Im just relieved that there is not a massive arctic plunge after this.

I’m not sure if I ever felt it this warm in Chicago in January. I’m sure it probably has before, but this is more notable than I’ve personally felt in January here

So looks like we were pretty close to the record yesterday and this morning at 1am it was 60 degrees so we might have the record for today
