Here's a good one. Currently, it's 35'F in Ocean Springs. We're going through what you might call a "cold spell." The front page of the newspaper yesterday displayed warnings and safety tips durring the "Deep Chill." Never mind that kids back in Fairbanks, AK will continue to go outside for recess as long as it doesn't drop below -20'F. In the meantime, back in Eagle River, the temperature at this moment is 37'F. At this second, it's warmer in Alaska than in Southern Mississippi (I'm sure it won't last, and they'be been paying their dues with the longest cold streak of temperatures below 0'F since October... a couple weeks ago, the city of Anchorage had to postpone the ice carving festival because it was so cold, the ice was turning to powder, instead of retaining its shape when cut into. Let me repeat: too cold for ice in Alaska. Sort of wacky).
So, to recap, Ocean Springs, MS 35'F. Eagle River, AK 37'F.
Chicago, IL right now? -12'F
