January 4, 200521 yr Snow is on the way...or so says the weather dudes. By ABC7Chicago.com January 4, 2005 — A Winter Storm Watch goes into effect this evening for the ABC 7 viewing area and will last through the entire day on Wednesday. Snow totals for this storm by Thursday morning could run from 6 to 12 inches. That amount is possible north of I-80. South of I-80, around Joliet, Romeoville, those areas will pickup around six-inches total. But further south, down toward Bourbonnais, there may be a layer of ice and on top of that a couple of inches of snow. The towns in the heaviest area of snow are Waukegan, McHenry, and Chicago, that's right, the city could see as much as six inches to a foot of snow. The heaviest snow with this storm system is going to be coming down during the daylight hours Wednesday. Average snowfall for the entire month of January is 11.3-inches. We may hit that in one day. ***************************************************************************************** Why couldn't this have happened last week?!

January 5, 200521 yr Well here in Gary, Indiana, we’ve received at least 3-4 inches of snow. I got the shovel out and plowed my front driveway, though it is still snowing pretty hard. As many, I’m hoping for no school.
January 5, 200521 yr Damnit, I hope it starts coming down harder. Supposedly most of the snow is coming tonight, where I live. Hopefully!
