Chicago got its first measurable snowfall since December 24th last night. As of 6 am CST/12:00 UTC, we have the following reports from area weather stations:
| Station | Snow |
|---|---|
| O'Hare | 127 mm (6 in.) |
| Midway | 102 mm (4 in.) |
| Milwaukee | 127 mm (6 in.) |
| Rockford | 127 mm (6 in.) |
Sadly for cross-country skiiers, today's forecast calls for temperatures around 3°C (37°F), which is just warm enough to turn the snow into a heavy, soupy mess but not enough to ski along the lake.
Speaking of heavy, soupy, messy snow, I will now go shovel.
