Snow began falling across the Chicago area at around 2pm this afternoon and that is the only the beginning of a prolonged storm that could keep the fluffy white stuff falling from the sky until mid-day Thursday! The storm will not be a traditional storm and will come in multiple waves that could send snowfall totals over the 12" mark in the city and areas north.
Overall, a general 4-8" will fall from the system snow between now and late evening tomorrow! Then the lake effect snow machine turns on. This is huge wild card because the exact set up of the lake effect snow is up in the air, but an additional 3-6" of snow could fall in the lake effect snow areas.
A WINTER WEATHER ADVISORY is in effect for the entire area until 6pm tomorrow afternoon for 4-8" of snow with the heaviest to fall AFTER sunrise tomorrow! Then in Lake and Cook Counties a LAKE EFFECT SNOW WATCH goes into effect for tomorrow night and Thursday morning where an additional 3-6" could fall. If you are traveling, please allow for extra time and DRIVE CAREFULLY! ROADS will be slick and snow covered.
