Spent 15 hours on the road today. Started on the Alabama coast at 7AM and got to Chicago at 10PM. It was between 75 and 80 degrees F until it started raining in southern Indiana around 5pm. Somewhere in the neighborhood of 60 degrees F by Indianapolis, 40 degrees by West Lafayette, and right at 32-33 in Chicago. Nasty rain from Indianapolis to Chicago, but at least it was wet and not frozen. From what I heard, there was sleet and frozen garbage in the Chicago area all the way until 8 or 9 pm.
Lots of people on the road, I don't think anyone was changing their plans based on the forecast. The strong northerly wind helped my car do 37mpg when normally I would expect 31-32 on that trip.
