- An Alberta Clipper storm system swept snow from North Dakota through the Midwest into Chicago starting November 9, 2025, triggering intense lake-effect snow over Lake Michigan that dumped up to 12 inches in suburbs within hours, per National Weather Service reports.
- The heavy, band-like snowfall reduced visibility to near-whiteout levels, causing multiple crashes including a fiery highway incident where a vehicle slid off the road, halting traffic and prompting winter storm warnings for chaotic commutes.
- Lake-effect snow, driven by a 20-30°F temperature contrast between frigid air and warmer lake waters, is projected to persist through November 11 in snowbelt areas, potentially marking Chicago's heaviest early-November accumulation since 2018.
