So what is the answer for today's connection for game #378?

Drum roll, please

Maybe it's because I'm based near Chicago, but I understood the purple category almost immediately Magic, motor, sin, and windy represent the cities of Miami, Detroit, Las Vegas, and Chicago, respectively Although I admit that I had to find out exactly what the city of Florida was holding the magical title 

The green category was a bit hard to figure out because Chill threw me for a loop But if I saw a cough and a cold, the rest fell into place 

As for the yellow category, I was the pain of my parents behind enough time to recognize those resentful callouts: easy, enough, quiet, relaxed

It quickly filled the blue, but I wouldn't have thought the category was that specific I was thinking more along the lines of marine mammals, perhaps whales, but no: humpback whales I like to argue that many other whales are also singing, exhaling, diving and violating, but I admit that I'm splitting my hair This is a fun fact, what their teeth are made of (keratin)!

Saturday's puzzle was fun filled with summer staples, from hitting the greens to catching baseball games and watching blockbusters 

My colleague Scott discovered the purple category almost immediately, as brat, dog, Frank and Link all make for a good time in the summer

The outdoor-themed stay made it a cinch for drivers, iron, wedges and trees to quickly jump out and grab the green category

The yellow category was a bit tricky because the word series looked like an outlier compared to more closely related words like chain, train, and string 

Then the blue became rotefil Regardless of how quickly the other 3 categories were properly classified, he initially did not notice the themes of horror films that connect birds, fog, omens and rings
