Recorded At O'Hare

Though more than 1,300 flights have been canceled at Chicago airports as a
snowstorm hit the area, O'Hare Airport was relatively quiet Saturday
afternoon and there wasn't much chaos evident, according to Kate Paulsen,
who was trying to catch a flight to Budapest, Hungary, for some holiday
shopping.
As of 6 p.m., 6.9 inches of snow had fallen at O'Hare and 5.5 at Midway,
making it the heaviest single-day snowfall since Nov. 21 2015, when 7
inches fell at O'Hare, according to the National Weather Service.
O'Hare had been predicting its busiest Thanksgiving week ever, despite the
FAA recently lifting flight restrictions across the country during the
country's longest government shutdown. More than 1.63 million travelers
were expected to pass through O'Hare during the seven-day Thanksgiving
period through Monday.
Sunday is expected to be the peak travel day at O'Hare, with up to 290,000
passengers arriving. The snow is expected to fall through Sunday morning,
snarling travel for those returning home from Thanksgiving. Another snow
system could move in Monday night.
The Chicago area could see up to 10 inches of snow by the time the storms
move out of the area, said National Weather Service meteorologist Kevin
Donofrio.
Paulsen, her mom, and her sister were supposed to land in Budapest on
Saturday, but a last-minute American Airlines cancellation threw their
plans off course. They'd already lost the first day of their trip, and
even after hours of searching for another flight, they were striking out.
"We're supposed to be visiting the holiday markets there," said Paulsen,
37, of Iowa. "If we can't fly out today we'll have to cancel the whole
trip."
Los Angeles resident Gail Edenson found herself sitting and waiting at
O'Hare's Terminal 2 after her flight home was delayed more than an hour
due to the weather. Edenson, who grew up in Chicago, wasn't surprised by
the setback, but she was still hoping to get out of the city on Saturday.
"If it's Chicago, you have to expect for this to happen," said Edenson,
who was in Chicago visiting family for the holiday.
As of Saturday afternoon, 1,160 flights were canceled at O'Hare and about
246 at Midway, according to the Chicago Department of Aviation. By 6 p.m.,
delays at O'Hare were down to about 63 minutes, and 36 minutes at Midway.
A winter storm warning remains in effect until 6 a.m. Sunday, according to
the National Weather Service. High temperatures Sunday will range from 27
to 33 degrees, and the lows from 5 to 18 degrees.
