Snow squall warnings were issued Wednesday morning, January 14 across parts of the Chicago area, bringing brief but intense snowfall, whiteout conditions, and strong winds that created hazardous travel conditions. The fast-moving squalls led to slick roads, reduced visibility, and flight disruptions at O’Hare Airport, where departures were temporarily grounded and delays averaged nearly an hour. Some areas reported up to two inches of snow in under two hours, while lake-effect snow is expected to continue affecting parts of Chicago, northwest Indiana, and southwest Michigan through Thursday
