The weekend is still a day away, but Chicago looked awful sleepy -- and spooky -- early Thursday.
A low-hanging fog crept around the Windy City throughout the day, sweeping over the river, Soldier Field and out to the lake. Below, we gathered a few samples from the city's ever-intrepid Tweeters (and visitors) who snapped gorgeous and occasionally eerie photos of the Chicago looking like something out of a John Carpenter movie.
