CHICAGO — Snow dusted Chicago Monday morning — just a few days after the city saw 80-degree temperatures, including the warmest April 13 in recorded history.
But the brief taste of summer gave way to a throwback to winter, with Chicagoans waking up to snow-covered tulips and cars.
The good news for those who want to get back to short sleeves is the cold isn’t expected to last, with temps in the 70s later in the week.
