As you know, I live in sunny California. Well, sunny and and then rainy California this Fall and early Winter. I am maybe 20 miles inland from the Bay, so we do have "seasons" here, but it's still pretty temperate overall. This morning, as I drove to get some beer for this afternoon's music practice, my truck's "outside thermometer" showed the temperature at 38 F. Not cold by this Chicago boy's standards, but still chilly. I did wear my Winter coat. How is the weather where you live?

Funny that I never associate California with being cold enough for a winter coat. Our temps here today are almost at 40 F, sunny and no snow or nasty anything for the next few upcoming days.,

Yeah, we're not always running around in shorts and Hawaiian shirts.

Also in the 30s, but that’s expected here. It’ll allegedly be in the 50s tomorrow then sn*w on Thursday.

We'll hit the 50s here as well. I think it is supposed to stay sunny for a few days.

The lows get in the thirties at night, but the highs have been in the low 60s. This week our highs go to the 50s, so I look forward to these chilly nights.

It's fine, but sometimes it rains, and it's cold at night... but I am sure not as cold as you are experiencing there.

They always talked about the "windchill" factor in Chicago.

We can't get out of the 60s, and rainy days are here.
