Light snow followed a cold front into the Chicago area Saturday morning, the third earliest we've seen a trace of the stuff dating back to 1881.
A band of rain and snow started spreading across northern Illinois shortly before 7 a.m., according to the National Weather Service.
For Chicago, it's the third earliest snow on record. The earliest traces of snow dating back to 1881 are Sept. 25, 1928 and Sept. 25, 1944.
Rockford recorded it second earliest snow this morning, shortly before 5 a.m. It just missed the record set on Oct. 3, 1951.
