Chicago saw its warmest day of the year Tuesday as residents prepared for melting snow and ice after weeks of freezing temperatures and above average snowfall.
The temperature at O’Hare Airport was 45 degrees by noon Tuesday, breaking the most recent high temperature of 41 degrees set Jan. 13, according to the National Weather Service.
The temperature was expected to climb to about 47 degrees.
On Sunday, Chicago broke out of a nearly three-week stretch of below-freezing temperatures. Along with the 34 inches of snow that fell at O’Hare during that time, officials warned residents of the dangers of snow melt and falling ice.
