Snowplow trucks double teaming a parking lot after a heavy lake effect snowstorm. River Grove Illinois. Febuary 2008.

Hello everyone!

Welcome aboard Eddie's Railfan Page, from the city of Chicago Illinois USA.

On todays date of Thursday, January 12th, 2012....Chicago is experiencing it's first real snowstorm of the 2012 Winter season.

Afer an unseasonabally mild December and early January with outside temperatures often reaching the upper 40's to the 50 degree mark, winter weather is no no longer on back order for the Windy city.

The National Weather Service has advised the entire Chicago area, of a heavy snowstorm with an estimated accumulation of 3 to 6 inches. It began snowing this morning in Glenview Illinois around 9:35 AM, and is expected to snow all night, until approximately 9 AM tommorow morning..

This February 2008 photo taken in the parking lot of the River Grove Public Library and adjacent VFW Hall, gives one the idea of what We just might expect to dig out of.

Sometimes You have to double team the snow to clear things out in the greater Chicagoland area.

Thanks.
Eddie K.

It's hard to believe that it was just 50 degrees outside on Wednsday.
