Snow in Chicago

I boarded a plane in New Orleans, and the thermometer was holding steady at 80 degrees. I rode the plane through sunny skies and landed in Chicago, where it was holding steady at 30 with more than six inches of snow on everything. It was, by far, the most snow I've ever seen.

Behold! The Snow Queen.

Before long, the novelty of all this nonsense wore away. Snow is cold, and unpleasant, and it wets your feet more or less constantly. I do not like snow.

It snowed again yesterday, making 2007-2008 the 7th snowiest season since 1884-1885 and the snowiest winter of my lifetime! Behold the might of the Queen of Winter!
