Chicago officially recorded its first snow of the 2022-23 season Monday morning.

The trace snowfall at O’Hare International Airport on Monday, means the city is two weeks ahead of “schedule” for the first flakes of the season, but it is not the earliest on record.

In 2021 however, Chicago didn’t see its first trace snowfall until Nov. 12. And, according to records, the first measurable snowfall -- defined by NWS as one-tenth of an inch of snow or more -- didn't occur until Dec. 28, 2021, the latest first measurable snowfall in recorded history. Porter and Jasper counties are under the advisory from 4 p.m. Monday through midnight Tuesday. There, forecasters say a period of"heavy, wet, wind-driven snow" is possible Monday afternoon and evening, with some areas seeing up to 3 inches of snow, particularly those away from Lake Michigan."There is a higher than normal degree of uncertainty with the snow forecast," it states.

For those concerned about accumulating snow, however, a combination of above-freezing temperatures and warm ground temperatures should ensure that no accumulation takes place elsewhere in the Chicago area.
