'Great Lake Jumper' dives into Lake Michigan on coldest day of 2022

The 'Great Lake Jumper' is continuing a tradition by jumping into Lake Michigan -- despite the arctic weather.

Monday will be warmer, with highs 18° to 25°. And Tuesday will get even warmer, with highs in the 22° to 26° range. Wednesday will feel absolutely balmy, with highs 38° to 42°.

Wednesday's warmup will be welcome after a brutal cold stretch that frosted the area in the days leading up to Christmas. The NWS said temperatures fell to -15°F Thursday night into Friday morning, while wind chills fell to -40°F.

Chicago's official low temperature for Friday, December 23 was -8°F, while Chicago's official high temperature for this date ended up being -1°F.  December 23 was the coldest December day in Chicago since 1983.
