What a difference a day makes! Navy Pier in downtown Chicago Thursday then Friday...

|

This set of photos of Navy Pier on Chicago's lakefront and sent to us by Creighton D. Fiscina illustrates the stunning weather shift between Thursday -- with its springlike temperatures and bright sun -- and Friday with its accumulating snow, 30-degree temperatures and near-40 m.p.h. wind gusts! Thanks Creighton -- how beautifully you've underscored the weather contrast!
