Chicago — Friday Morning

"Lake wind off Michigan has teeth this morning — real cold, not scenic cold. Layered clouds breaking by two. The afternoon will earn its sunshine. Dress for the walk, not the destination."

Template: windy, high of 44, feels like 36. Vesper tells you to plan for the commute, not the office.

A Vesper Brief for Chicago acknowledges the city's combative relationship with weather and speaks to it directly. Rather than apologizing for wind chill or celebrating rare warm days with template enthusiasm, the brief reads like a dispatch from someone who lives through Chicago weather and respects what that means.
