Chicago matches snowfall record with nine straight days of measurable snow
There have been nine days in a row with “measurable snow” in Chicago as of Sunday, matching a record. It’s only the third time the city has seen nine days in a row of snow since the National Weather Service started keeping records in 1885, according to the Tribune. Thankfully, the city isn’t expected to break the record—there should be no new snow Monday. [Tribune]
