Truth be told, we've been pretty lucky this winter with the weather cooperating. But you know it is one motherhubbard of a storm from when NBC flies Al Roker and The Weather Channel sends Jim Cantore to Chicago to provide first-person accounts.

Roker was just on NBC5 telling Rob Elgas and Zoraida Sambolin that, from a geographic perspective, the magnitude of this storm is one of the largest he's ever covered. NOAA shared this satellite photograph showing just how huge this storm is.
