The Chicago blizzard of 1979 was a major blizzard that affected northern Illinois and northwest Indiana on January 13–14, 1979. It was one of the largest Chicago snowstorms in history at the time, with 21 inches (53 cm) of snowfall in the two-day period.

The blizzard lasted for a total of 38 hours. At its peak, wind gusts reached speeds of 39 miles (63 km) per hour. Five people died during the blizzard, with approximately 15 others seriously injured due to conditions created by the storm. One of the five deaths came when a snowplow driver went berserk, hitting 34 cars and ramming a man. O'Hare Airport was closed and all flights were grounded for 96 hours, from January 13 to 15. The cold weather and snowfall throughout the rest of January and February resulted in frozen tracks throughout the Chicago 'L' system. Consequently, commuters overwhelmed the capacity of CTA buses, causing bus commutes that normally would have taken 30 to 45 minutes to take up to several hours. To avoid huge snowdrifts in the streets, the overcrowded buses were obliged to take numerous detours, adding additional time to the commute. Le blizzard de 1979 à Chicago est une tempête de neige majeure qui toucha du 13 au 14 janvier 1979 la région de Chicago, le nord de l'Illinois et le nord-ouest de l'Indiana aux États-Unis. 41,9 cm de neige sont tombés le 13 janvier, établissant un nouveau record de neige en une seule journée. À la fin du deuxième jour, 20,3 pouces (52 cm) de neige étaient tombés. Les températures enregistrées sont descendues jusqu'à −19,2 °C. Le blizzard a duré 38 heures et à son apogée, les rafales de vent ont atteint des vitesses de 63 km/h. Cinq personnes sont mortes pendant le blizzard, et une quinzaine d'autres ont été grièvement blessées en raison des conditions créées par la tempête.
