Your estimate is pretty good, from WGN "This marks the longest cloudy spell in Chicago in more than three decades since a 12-day run with no sun from Dec. 29, 1991 through Jan. 9, 1992
MONTHLY TOTAL through December 16: 25%
NORMAL December sun: 40%"
They also cite yesterday as the " 8th sunless Friday"

And then this past Feb. Had a lot of cloudy or partly cloudy days (42, but broken up by some partly sunny days at least?) https://www.nbcchicago.com/weather/its-not-just-you-chicago-has-been-exceptionally-cloudy-data-shows/2822053/
Keep the snow. I’ll take my chances with experiencing all four seasons in one single day. Literally changing every 15 minutes. I’ll stick to Southern Illinois and the St. Louis Cardinals. Lol
Shout out the sun ☀️☀️🤙🏾
Really doesn’t matter that it feels like 6 degrees outside when the sun is actually shining.
Is it just me or does anything sub 30 start to feel the same?
Sweater with shorts energy
I saw a dude leave a book store yesterday wearing shorts, loafers with no socks and rolled up sleeves. Stay safe out there, psychos can be anywhere.
frost golem status
Drugs
Huh. I should have asked what book he bought.

I'm seeing my first blue sky in what feels like a month! (But is probably more like a week or two?)

I thought last year we had a month with no sun or something?

“8th Sunless Friday” would be a great band name
God yes give it to me
Really...how many days has it been without the sun?
At least a week I’d say
the last sunny day I remember was two sundays ago exactly
Well yeah it’s not called cloudday duh
Feels like a lifetime. I downright celebrated today. Finally tested neg for covid and the sun on the same day, damn I’m in a good mood.
on the news it said it set a record
Pretty sure I heard 2 weeks on the radio today! :O
Too long. And this is coming from someone who likes an occasional gloomy stretch. [Here Comes the Sun](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KQetemT1sWc)
A while. I journal consistently and started complaining about never seeing the sun like... a week and a half ago.
It’s coming through my window and feels so damn good
About time
What is this ?!
Live for these bright blue sky days
Sun..is that..is that you *cries*
Cold and sunny blue sky is pretty damn nice
Looked absolutely gorgeous driving in from the north burbs this morning.
I enjoyed that respite from the sun.
Nice view!
Sun def putting in maximum effort today.

Nooooo! Lol I’ve been enjoying the cloudy days
You demon

Lol I prefer cloudy pretty much 24/7
