What happened in Chicago that's causing UA to do free ticket adjustments,
etc.? I see a storm coming in, but it's not like it's January in

What piqued my interest was this:

Both Denver and Chicago got whacked yesterday. Not sure if it was
weather, but the Vancouver bound flights were 5-8 hours late.

Looks like they are going to get whacked again, this time with weather.
