Chicago, brace yourself for another round of winter's fury! The city is set for a snowy Monday commute, adding to the chaos of the weekend's weather-related travel woes.
But here's the catch: While Chicagoans are no strangers to snow, this time, it's the aftermath of a record-breaking storm. On Saturday, O'Hare Airport witnessed a staggering 8.4 inches of snow, marking the snowiest November day in Chicago's recorded history. This intense snowfall led to over 1,300 flight cancellations at O'Hare and Midway airports, leaving travelers stranded and frustrated.
As the city recovers, the ABC7 Weather team warns of more snow on the way. Meteorologist Tracy Butler predicts light snow in the early afternoon, adding one to three inches to the existing blanket. A Winter Weather Advisory will be in effect from 2 p.m. to midnight, ensuring a challenging commute home.
And it's not just the snow. Fog and black ice are lurking dangers, already causing multiple crashes and spinouts on I-355. This treacherous combination could make the evening commute a nightmare for many.
For those who experienced the weekend's travel chaos, the hope is for a smoother journey this time. But with the potential for more snow and icy conditions, will Chicago's commuters find relief or face further frustration? Stay tuned as the city navigates yet another snowy chapter in its winter tale.
