I'll be travelling only with a carryon, so no worries about checked bags. Any thoughts on whether it is reasonably safe to think I'll make it, or if this is just an unnecessary way to get stuck in chicago for an extra day? thanks!
I am risk adverse, but if this was optimal for scheduling I would do it. At that time of the day, delays are minimal, early arrivals are common and the storms are minimal.
