A near-stationary cold front is expected to lock in typical winter high temperatures in the 30s near the Wisconsin border and springlike highs in 50s along the Interstate 80 corridor, meteorologist Casey Sullivan said. A gradient of temperatures is expected in between, with the high in Chicago forecast in the low 40s, according to the National Weather Service.
During All-Star introductions, DJ D-Nice played the chorus from the old O’Jays’ hit, “For the Love of Money.” (“Money, money, money, money … MO-neeey.”) It was befitting considering the immense amount of wealth accumulated by the superstars being announced.

Needless to say, the Slam Dunk contest should be reserved for actual All-Stars. Get a sponsor to provide a $1 million prize for the winner’s favorite charity if that’s what it takes to get better contestants.

Ice cover is highly variable. Lake Michigan has had as much as 93% of its surface covered, in 2014, while in 2002 coverage hit a low of 12%. But as human action, largely the burning of fossil fuels, drives climbing temperatures, there are now fewer days with ice cover and coverage is decreasing at a rate of about 5% per decade. Lake Michigan’s decline is less severe, while Lake Superior — among the fastest-warming lakes on the planet — has seen the fastest loss.
Moore, a 25-year-old Liverpool defender, was on New Zealand’s 2015 World Cup roster but didn’t get into a match, then missed the 2019 World Cup after an Achilles injury. Making her 50th international appearance, she was replaced in the 40th minute.
“I think it’s nice now that we all can sit down and say, ‘Look, we’re all on the same page here,’” McIlroy said. “Are there things the tour could do better and they’re working on? Of course, but that’s the same in any business, in any sports league around the world.”
