Roundup Of Hilarious Tweets About Chicago's High Winds
"If my wig blows off, I'm not leaving my house for the next five years."
CHICAGO, IL — The high winds have wreaked havoc across Chicago over the past two days, but have also brought out the comedic gold from Chicagoans just trying to do everyday things. Like walking. Or wearing hats. Or seeing after being hit in the eyes with debris.
Many people took to Twitter to rant at the wind for waking them up overnight, while others lamented that they had been blown over several times.
On the plus side, some people said they got a great workout in trying to walk to their jobs, hang onto their grocery bags or support their poor dogs trying to pee outside.
