Another weather forecast by Jim Hill (famous for being a longtime voiceover announcer at WMAQ-TV) who originally called it a "very poorly organized storm"; Anchor Mike Jackson speaks at length with Mayor Bilandic about the city's response to the blizzard, which was still being organized at the time (also poorly).
