just 6 days left to make the most of #Chicago Rest

#Chicago weather keeping us guessing ☀️ → ❄️
Some tips if you’re traveling to Chicago in the winter months:
• check the forecast the day of departure (weather may have already changed from the first time you checked!)
• hand and foot warmers are a super useful (i like the rechargeable ones on Amazon!)
• even if snow isn’t in the forecast, the wind chill can make temps colder than they seem so bring a warm, long jacket and thick tights / fleece-lined pants
• scout out indoor spots to pop into and warm up while you’re out exploring (i love coffee shops for this — @intelligentsiacoffee, @caffeumbria, @foxtrotmarket, @bluebottle are some of my favs in the Loop)
What are your best tips for staying warm while out and about during #Chicago winter?? Do you check the forecast 5 times a day like me or just take your chances? 😅
