National Pizza Day: Forecast for the cheesiest day of the year
On National Pizza Day, looking at Giordano's in Chicago
Jesse Harris, Executive Chef of Giordano's Pizza, joined FOX Weather Sunrise on National Pizza Day to explain why their deep dish pizza is the best.
February 9 marks National Pizza Day, and no matter how you slice it, people will have their opinion on where to find the best pizza in America.
From San Francisco to Chicago to New York, Wednesday’s weather will be as different as people’s views of pineapple on pizza.
Forecast for Wednesday, Feb. 9, 2022.

In New York City, it'll be nice enough for a rat to steal a slice. Highs will be in the upper 40s.
Colder temperatures will be in the forecast for both Chicago and Detroit, and hopefully, those deep-dish-like pies will keep eaters warm.
And in San Francisco, the heat is on. It may be best to eat those slices cold, as temperatures will be well above average.
