Chicago had several severe winters in the 1980s, including a record-breaking cold Christmas in 1983 and a record-breaking cold temperature in January 1985.
1981–1982
A severe winter with blizzard-like conditions in south central Illinois
The snow and cold caused 34 deaths and at least 550 injuries statewide
The snow and cold severely damaged agriculture and wildlife
1983
A record-breaking cold Christmas with temperatures below zero for 100 consecutive hours
On Christmas Day, the low temperature was -25° and the high was -11°
The wind chill reached a record of -82°
1985
A record-breaking cold temperature of -27° on January 20
A wind chill of -93° was recorded
A cold air mass moved southeastward, bringing frigid air to most of the East Coast of the United States


I was working outside on Christmas Eve, 1983.

The diesel in my truck turned to jelly.

was outside working in a t-shirt christmas 1982, the next christmas - dressed like an eskimo. also worked at o'hare the coldest ever day in 1985. i believe at some point for humans, the temp doesn't matter any more. i only remember that -25 below and windy is the same as -8 below and windy. machinery and other products are different, humans just keep going.

Family had a diesel Oldsmobile. Died on the way to school 3 or 4 times. Talked to a guy years later he had a big business covering those cars to gas and/or buying them cheap and shipping them Arizona. Said the shops had garages full of them all winter thawing them out. I remember a lot of cold winters from 79ish to maybe 85/86..

When we had the old Duramax pickup out here I always had a spare fuel filter in the car. The paraffin in biodiesel did not agree with those filters when it was cold.

With luxurious maroon vinyl interior and woody styling on the outside? I don't remember much about that car except it freezing up on 25 a few times, road trips to western Pennsylvania, how damn hot the seats got in the middle of summer and my mom complaining about it being hard to find fuel for it away from the interstate(Shell station near the train station in Geneva I think was one of her spots). Oh, and the darn thing was a boat.

It looks like a wall of goodness that will hit Chicagoland. It doesn't look at intense as earlier as being red on the radar.

Maybe we can get boots on the ground with Dicaro to give us updates? Could we get a chopper off the ground if she boarded it?

Are you in Adams county? I’m in Sauk and my phone was going off every 5 minutes. Some good size hail and a bit of rain has turned to sunshine (at the moment).

There was some rain. Some lightning.
Why is everyone freaked out by that? We need rain around here.

No rain.

It took me no small amount of effort to get two cars in the garage and nothing happened.
