View show details

A full 8-day weather forecast for the holiday of Sukkos (Sept 25 – Oct 2, 2026) in Chicago, plus Shemini Atzeres/Simchas Torah context. Voiced by Puck and Sulafat over the usual Blue Dot Sessions bed. Covers what to wear to sleep in the sukkah each night, rainfall risk, wind, whether you'll hit mitztaer patur min ha'sukkah territory (spoiler: no), and whether mosquitoes will still be biting in Chicago vs. St. Louis. Chicago candle-lighting is at the local 20-minute minhag. Includes Chol HaMoed activity ideas for Monday through Thursday in the Chicago area, plus the customs of Leil Hoshana Rabbah (all-night Tikkun, the moonlight shadow minhag) and the day of Hoshana Rabbah on Friday (seven hakafos, the aravos, festive meal). Sources: NWS Chicago/LOT 7-day, NOAA Climate Prediction Center 6-10 and 8-14 day outlooks, AccuWeather monthly outlook, and community sources on Hoshana Rabbah customs.
