MY BLOCK Shovel Crew
Every Winter Chicago faces frigid temperatures and lots of snow, and every year My Block My Hood My City is out there shoveling to make life a little easier for our neighbors. After every big snow we shovel for seniors, residents with disabilities, areas with vacant homes/lots, under-resourced schools, and more.
On average Chicago gets 3 feet of snow each year. In 1978, Chicago got nearly 8 feet - 87.9 inches to be exact! The heaviest 24-hour snowfall was 18.6 inches on January 2nd, 1999. That is a lot of snow!
