You don't hear people talking about it much, but the weather in Chicago is harsh. Surprisingly, the months of November, December, January, February, and March are not months where many people plan touristy get-aways to Chicago. This is likely due to the little-known fact that Chicago is smack dab in the middle of the jet stream, which deposits cold, windy, and precipitous weather from Canada - a country that is also shockingly known for its cold weather.
Occasionally - very occasionally - you can hear people in Chicago complain about the weather. Its obvious from their lamenting that most people don't know about Chicago's brutality. Otherwise, why would someone move to Windy City? I mean, if people had only KNOWN about the cold winter weather there, they probably would have never moved there in the first place, right? That's why they bitch incessantly, because they are so surprised.
