With a bank of low-flying clouds hanging out on the horizon this morning,
we had to wait for the sun to show… but the “previews” show was FANTASTIC!!!
So we may have “Spring-ed forward”… or would that be Sprung?… an hour forward last night, but the morning sunrise was delayed by a thick band of clouds hanging low on the horizon. Dramatic waves coming in while the sun took its time to finally arrive & greet the day.
A quiet start to another quiet morning. Clear skies with a little bit of haze hovering over the City while a pretty stiff breeze was blowing through. Headwinds for the first half… so riding home was more fun!!!
On a clear day you can see forever. And today might have been one of those days. With a bit of low-lying haze, the sunrise was delayed, but well worth the wait. A quiet start to the day… before I head back to Evanston for Day Two of “4×4 : FOUR MAKERS”
With a touch of overnight rain, it was warm & kinda damp this morning riding on wet pavement. Not my favorite thing to do… but with surprisingly warm temperatures today I felt like I “just had to” get outside to play this morning! There were still lots of hazy clouds hovering over the City, but the view over the lake was clear & orange with just a few clouds breezing through. Enjoy it now… as the forecast for tomorrow morning is 40-degrees colder than today!!! YIKES!!!
Another beautiful day… clear skies with a warm start & a forecast of upper sixties for later this afternoon. It’s hard to think that just a couple days ago we had SNOW!!! And that by looking at the calendar… we probably will again!!! But for now… maybe just today & tomorrow… SPRING IS HERE!!! Okay, just let me have this one…
Clear skies with just a couple wisps breezing through. Another quiet & warm morning along the lake… still chilly, but not too cold. Feels like Spring might be on its way!!!
So yesterday when we had clear skies… I “might have” mentioned that I prefer cloudy days so that the sun can splash color all over them. We got a bit today… a great splash of color… but then the gray clouds took over completely before the sunrise could really happen?! Guess I need to use my words more cautiously… because sometimes you get just what you asked for!!!
On a clear day… cue music here… you can see forever! Well, except for that little bit of “marine layer” cloudiness along the horizon. So nice to have a bit of a warm spell coming into Chicago for the next couple days!
With a forecast for another cloudy day, it was a nice surprise
to start it off with some nice colors this morning!
