Blizzard warnings over after one of worst November storms dumps up to 13 inches of snow

Blizzard and winter storm warnings were canceled in the Chicago area Monday morning after one of the largest November storms on record dumped as much as 13 inches of snow, jamming the morning commute, canceling more than 700 flights at the city's airports, shutting hundreds of schools and knocking power out to more than 300,000 homes and businesses.
One final wave of winter weather still was expected to lash the Chicagoland area this morning, likely before noon, before the storm moves out of the area, according to an 8 a.m. post by the National Weather Service. Wet and icy roads were expected to persist until the system passes, with conditions clearing mid- to late morning from northwest to southeast.
