Light Snow Likely Friday Night through Saturday

It will be dry today with temperatures in the 40s but it will be turning colder on Saturday and Sunday with high temperatures in the 30s. Rain and snow is forecast to develop tonight with snow continuing through the day on Saturday. Less than an inch of snow is expected. It is forecast to be breezy Saturday into Saturday night with gusts up to 30 mph. Wind chills on Sunday morning are expected to be in the single digits above zero.

Another storm system will move across the region Friday night into Saturday. While rain is possible at the start, a changeover to light snow is expected to quickly occur from northwest to southeast. Snow amounts are expected to be light, with latest trends suggesting that the highest probabilities of receiving an inch of snow are across northwest Illinois. However, there still remains uncertainty in the exact track of this system, and exact air and pavement temperatures which will affect snowfall amounts and impacts. Stay tuned.
