I was riding in and driving (there were 7 of us) a 15-seat passenger van 
from Minneapolis, MN to Buffalo, NY on January 2nd or 3rd, 1987 during the 
massive New Years snowstorm that dumped feet of snow from Chicago to the 
East coast.  We drove into the back end of the storm on the east side of 
Chicago and had to stop in Buffalo because they wouldn't let us drive any 
further towards our destination in Vermont.  I-90 turned into a two lane 
highway. :-)
