The Chicago blizzard of 1967 struck northeast Illinois and northwest Indiana on January 26–27, 1967, with a record-setting 23 inches (58 cm) snow fall in Chicago and its suburbs before the storm abated the next morning. As of 2022, it remains the greatest snowfall in one storm in Chicago history. As the blizzard was a surprise during the day with people already at work or school, it stopped the city for a few days as people dug out. "The storm was a full-blown blizzard, with 50 mph-plus northeast wind gusts creating drifts as high as 15 feet."

- Le blizzard de 1967 à Chicago a été une tempête de neige majeure qui toucha d'abord durement la région de Chicago, le nord de l'Illinois, le nord-ouest de l'Indiana et le Michigan aux États-Unis, puis le sud de l'Ontario et du Québec au Canada. Le 26 janvier 1967, 58 cm de neige sont tombés sur Chicago et sa banlieue, avant que la tempête ne se calme le lendemain au petit matin. Cette tempête de neige est à ce jour la plus importante dans l'histoire de Chicago. Elle a également donné des quantités importantes de neige tout au long de sa trajectoire vers le Québec. (fr)
