Events

A stationary front settled over the Chicago area overnight, drifting north through my area around 8am and drifting back south around 2pm. As those overlapped almost perfectly with when I walked the dogs today, I got to be incorrectly dressed twice. When I walked the girls at 8am, the temperature was drifting down from 20°C to 15°C; just now it vaulted from 15°C to 28°C (with a heat index over 30°C):

Cassie, Butters, and I took a 40-minute walk to the lake and back in a 28°C heat index an hour ago, and both of them are passed out on various surfaces. Good, especially in Butters' case. (As I typed this, Cassie came over to investigate.)
