This winter ends up third in cold, snowfall

Enough snow had fallen by Saturday morning to make the 2013-2014 winter the fourth snowiest on record, according to the National Weather Service.

Barely a half inch of snowfall was recorded at O'Hare International Airport by 6 a.m. Saturday, bringing the total snowfall for the season to 68.9 inches, said meteorologist Gino Izzo.

Two to five more inches could fall by Sunday evening, Izzo said. That's not likely to be enough to pass the snowfall total for the third snowiest season - which was 1969-70 with 77 inches. In 1977-78, 82.3 inches were recorded. In 1978-79, the snowiest Chicago winter on record, 89.7 inches were recorded.

There's a small chance for minor snowfall next week, Izzo said, while temperatures will remain below average for March. The forecast shows high temperatures in the 20s through Wednesday, while the average is in the low 40s, Izzo said.
