Hinsdale's first snowfall missed Christmas by three days but it still created a beautiful background for the Christmas lights near the Memorial Building and in Burlington Park. And while not a lot of snow is forecast over the next few days, there is no doubt that winter is finally here with temperatures expected to drop the next two days. The good news? This weekend we are expecting to warm right back up. The bad news? Next week the cold returns. (Jim Slonoff photo)
