What is the weather at Soldier Field right now?

Because Soldier Field sits on the shore of Lake Michigan, the wind can shift quickly and the “feel-like” temperature can be several degrees lower than what a standard thermometer reads.

How does Lake Michigan change the weather at Soldier Field?
The lake acts as a temperature buffer, keeping the stadium cooler in spring and warmer in early winter. In late autumn and winter, winds off the lake can produce lake-effect clouds and snow, while in summer the breeze often moderates the heat.
