Chicago Summer R.I.P.
May 26, 2008 – May 26, 2008
Wednesday afternoon update: Well, at least the sun is out today. But, still, people simply should not be wearing parkas and scarves on “L” platforms three days before the start of June.
This happens next year and the CTA is going to have to start keeping those heat lamps at my Red Line station active until May 31.
Or July 31.
The current shut-off date of March 31 is not cutting it anymore. Not even close.
Of, course … ahem, I’m guessing CTA officials probably have other things on their minds today besides the Chicago chill.)
