Wild waves along the Chicago lakefront
Posted: 09/30/2011
Some Chicago joggers and cyclists were greeted with a new obstacle course along Lake Shore Drive Friday morning.
High surf and winds in excess of 50 miles an hour pushed water from Lake Michigan onto the road.
Bikers and runners were no match for Mother Nature. Most were knocked down.
Police eventually closed the path until the waves could subside.
