February 18, 201412 yr QUOTE (Jenksismyb**** @ Feb 18, 2014 -> 03:01 PM) Per Tom Skilling: "The storm’s new half-foot accumulations pushed area snow tallies to new benchmarks. At Midway Airport, where snow’s been measured since 1928, Monday’s new 5.4” accumulation sends the 2013-14 total to 72.4”—that site’s 4th-snowiest on the books. The 4.7” Monday snowfall at O’Hare brings the city’s official seasonal tally to a rank of 5th-highest in 129 years of observations at 67.6”." Chicago's two highest are 80.6 and 71.2 inches, or almost 100 inches less than South Bends top.
February 18, 201412 yr QUOTE (RockRaines @ Feb 18, 2014 -> 03:04 PM) We easily got 10 in yesterday. But its all melting now. The mounds near the street were crazy, we were trying to shovel open spots to street park and the mounds were a good 4-5 ft tall after moving the snow. Glad a lot of it is melting now because if it snowed again not sure where any shoveled snow could go.
February 18, 201412 yr We've had two days with temps in the 40s and 50s, and there is still snow in the back yard. Not worried though, since Thursday's tornadoes will get rid of it.
February 18, 201412 yr If jumping puddles downtown today was an Olympic sport, I would've gotten the gold. Agility on display. Edited February 19, 201412 yr by Brian

February 19, 201412 yr Stepped in six inches of slush.....I do not care 41 degrees has never felt so good.
February 19, 201412 yr Yeah, but it's Indiana. They deserve it for living in that barren wasteland of bad taste, meth, nascar and monster trucks. There is just as much of all of those things in Illinois, if not more, than in Indiana.

February 20, 201412 yr We finally get warm weather and now I have to be paranoid about my basement flooding. Best winter EVER.
February 20, 201412 yr QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Feb 19, 2014 -> 07:49 PM) We finally get warm weather and now I have to be paranoid about my basement flooding. Best winter EVER. Yep. My sump pump burned out last fall and luckily we caught it before we left for work. I'm now even more paranoid about it.
February 20, 201412 yr I took one look at the forecast and wanted no part of the slop. I opted to Work at Home today.
February 28, 201412 yr Another winter storm on the way for Sunday/Monday. I know the Weather Channel names storms, but I'm naming this one "Bieber" because it will be obnoxious and irritating and I'd rather it just stay in Canada.

March 1, 201412 yr Is the weather going to get any better in 3 weeks?? Would rather it not be 10 degrees and snowing while in Chicago

March 2, 201412 yr Look at the first week of the baseball season. Promise? http://www.accuweather.com/en/us/chicago-i...eather/26466_pc

Promise? http://www.accuweather.com/en/us/chicago-i...eather/26466_pc I find it to be highly inaccurate, but maybe you'll have better luck. I actually just searched it two weeks ago when there was reports of flooding. It said the following week would be chilly, but then 40's and 50's average afterwards. That never happened.
