You mean the 2nd blizzard of '67 for Chicago? My mother mentioned once how they had to put little colored foam balls on top of the car antennas for visibility at intersections in '67.

The best graphical break-down of Jan '78 Super Bomb and good coverage of the first 2 of 3 historic winters for the Lower Lakes region. This one's certainly for the wx buff in all of us.

I didn't realize the forecast was that bad for the 1979 storm. I knew it was for the 1967 storm. Fun fact... Chicago set its all-time record snow depth of 29" in the wake of the 1979 storm. It's one of only 3 years to officially have a snow depth of over 2 feet, with the others being 1918 and 1967. The peak 1967 snow depth actually happened in February, almost 2 weeks after the blizzard.

and to all a good night
