We've had a pretty rough winter (at this point it wasn't that bad, we got 21+ inches of snow one weekend), and with AWD on my car it wasn't too bad. I turned off traction control by accident once -- don't recommend doing that. Only the alleys (were the parking often is) were really bad since they don't get plowed by the city. Lots of cardboard, floor mats, sand and pushing to get cars out. Also: we got to -22F last winter. Come on down and visit in February sometime :P

Driving in a lot of snow is just something you get accustomed to after a while, especially if you're familiar with your car and can gauge how much traction is available. AWD and snow tires help tremendously, but they're luxuries I've never used in Michigan.
@scenicdepictionsofchicagolife3 жыл бұрын
It rarely ever gets down to -4F/-20C here. Our climate is much further south than people realize. What makes it so "cold" for the latitude were at is the central planes of Canada allowing Arctic air to spew down all the way to the gulf of Mexico. This is why Texas, Louisiana, Mississippi, and Alabama get way more snow and cold spells than anywhere in Florida or Georgia, other mid Atlantic states as they have no natural barrier to the constant flow of cold Fronts. Same here in Chicago. (i.e., Texas winter storm crisis of last year) At the same time, our winters _and_ summers are moderated by the adiabatic latent heat sink of Lake Michigan. It is the size of a small sea, and warms Chicago up by anywhere from 10 to sometimes 20 degrees from the surrounding regions. The lake effect stretches out for a significant distance too. That said, our winters are between 20-30F in the dead of winter. When severe polar vortex fronts hit from Canada, only then do we see crazy temps like -4F, and I remember a few years ago we had a record breaking -18F. Whoever is saying -22 is referring to suburbs further out and further north, though still technically part of Chicagoland. We typically experience temperatures like that maybe 1-2, _maybe_ 3-4 nights a year. That was an incredible cold, and I hope to never experience that again. Trust me, 30F is more than cool enough to satisfy the midsummer heat woes. I am currently catching myself longing for winter as this last week we've had 95-100F almost every day and 100 percent humidity. I know though, that the minute winter hits, I'll be begging for summer heat to be back. As for the snow, it varies wildly from year to year and I suspect it cycles and is dependant on the El Nino / La Nina cycles. The "coldness" of our winters here vary wildly too, and I believe the same mechanics are at play that affect that. Note that warmer winters are actually more conducive to snow, and this past winter was no exception - it was much warmer than average and we got absolutely dumped on during the month of February. So yeah, PSA. Chicago is not a frozen tundra like people would have you think. It really annoys me when people say that despite real "winter" only lasting during January and February. People need to go to like Maine or Minnesota or something, or perhaps Winnipeg in Canada / Fairbanks Alaska to experience true cold. Ain't nothing noteworthy about our winters here. If I were to warn you about anything regarding Chicago's weather is the pretty much annual severe heat waves we get with triple digit temps and extreme humidity and the severe weather we get (tornadoes). Chicago's weather is pretty extreme in the sense that its range is incredible. It is a wonderful, world class city. I hope you make a trip to visit here some day. I myself have Australia on the bucket list of places to visit. Oh and one last thing, people who swear by AWD don't know how to drive. I make do with a FWD hatchback just fine, as do millions of others in the region.

The beginning of the video says it's 1/21/21 at 5:30pm which was rush hour on a Thursday. The northbound trains and loop platforms should be jammed with commuters. It is snowing but by the looks of the alleys and parked cars there's not a lot of fresh snow. Having lived in Chicago, riding the el and buses for four years of school, it would take a lot more snow than that before businesses would consider closing early. I thought about reduced ridership due to Covid but if the numbers were as low as this video indicates, I doubt they'd have that many cars on the trains. It would just be more for them to clean and sanitize.
@bronxsportsfan2 жыл бұрын
Using logic based on the fact that the Pandemic is still ongoing (as of 5/16/2022 as I'm writing this), there may be less riders because of the Pandemic and the snow, which would result in fewer travelers under normal circumstances. Thankfully in Chicago, the CTA never considered reducing train service as any time (unlike my hometown of New York City, which shockingly closed the entire subway system from May 2020 until June 2021).
