When it get crappy, why don't you take Ridge over to Halsted? That or Rt.6 past River Oaks...
I got a straight shot down 147th to Oak Park to 159th to Harlem. When I have to hit one of the airports, that's when I get cranky, esp in winter. Driving the Jeeps on the highway is fun, but not as nimble as I need it, and the Monte isn't all that good in lots of snow (Oh, it's great in winter, but anymore than 4" and I'm plowing the streets).

It was getting warm enuff to melt out there today, but I'd ask Rew, he was getting snowed on when we had a sunny day... All I know it's like 3 out right now, and we're supposed to warm up today and tomorrow, then get cold again sat & sun... And they said something about snow on mon & tues...
