ENCOURAGING OTHERS TO PAY IT

FORWARD.

BACK TO THE WEATHER WATCH

NOW AND A LIVE LOOK AT THE

MOBILE WEATHER LAB.

REAL ACTION AT THERE TONIGHT,

THIS IS I-80. YOU SEE IT'S

SNOWING PRETTY HIGH RIGHT NOW.

THERE IS PROBLEMS AT THE

AIRPORTS, 340 FLIGHTS CANCELED

AT O'HARE, ANOTHER 145 FLIGHTS

CANCELED AT MIDWAY.

YES, WE ARE ALL ON TOP OF

THIS.

MARY KAY IS HERE WITH THE REAL-

TIME UPDATES ON THAT SNOW.

BETWEEN NOW AND 10 O'CLOCK

WE WILL SEE THE BEST CHANCES

FOR ACCUMULATIONS BEFORE

TEMPERATURES START WRITING.

LOOK AT THE MORNING BEFORE THE

SUN RISES, WE ARE ABOUT ABOVE

FREEZING.

THAT CHANGE OVER TO PLAIN OLD

BRAIN CAN ALSO CUT DOWN ON SOME

OF THE SNOW TOTALS.

BUT RIGHT NOW WE HAVE ACTIVE

SNOW BANDS MOVING THROUGH, A

WINTER WEATHER ADVISORY UP

THROUGH THE NIGHT UNTIL 6 AM

TOMORROW MORNING.

TEMPERATURES ARE COLD ENOUGH

FOR THIS ALL TO BE SNOW.

WE ARE IN THE 20s FOR RIGHT

NOW, WE ARE GOING TO STAY THERE

FOR THE NEXT COUPLE OF HOURS.

I THINK WE WILL SEE OUR LOW

TEMPERATURE AT ABOUT 10 O'CLOCK

TONIGHT BEFORE READINGS START

RISING INTO THE MORNING.

LOW-PRESSURE SWIRLING OVER HERE

IS SENDING THE STORM IN OUR

DIRECTION.

SOUTH OF THAT YOU SEE THE

CHANGEOVER TO FREEZING RAIN

AROUND ST. LOUIS, LITTLE SLEEP

AS WELL, THEN RAN SOUTH AS WELL.

CLOSER TO HOME WE HAVE A FOR

SNOW BAND MOVING TO THE CITY

AND IT'S NOW OVER THE LAKE.

I AM SEEING EVIDENCE HERE OF A

GOOD COVERAGE OF SNOW INTO

GARY, VALPARAISO, ST. JOHN AND

ORLAND PARK.

ALSO WEST OF THE CITY AROUND

NORTHFIELD, DeKALB, OTTAWA WE

ARE SEEING MORE SNOW.

THAT WILL KEEP INCREASING FOR

THE NEXT COUPLE OF HOURS.

EVERYTHING MOVING IN FROM THE

WEST AND SOUTHWEST AND PUSHING

ACROSS THE CITY.

WE HAVE TO WATCH READINGS

OVERNIGHT, BECAUSE BY THE TIME

WE GET INTO THE MIDNIGHT HOUR

NOTICE HOW THE PRESET CHANGES

OVER TO SLEET AND FREEZING RAIN

BECAUSE READINGS ARE STARTING

TO RISE ABOVE THE FREEZING MARK.

5 AM 34 DEGREES, LOOK AT THE

RAIN/SNOW LINE SNEAKING ALL THE

CLOSE TO THE WISCONSIN STATE

LINE.

SHOWERS TO START THE DAY ON

SATURDAY, 37 DEGREES AT 10 AM.

I'M THINKING WE WILL SEE OUR

HIGH AT THAT TIME OF THE

MORNING BEFORE THE WHOLE STORE

EMPLOYEES PULLS THE MOISTURE

AWAY. WE START DROPPING AGAIN

AS THE WEST WINDS PICK UP TO 20

MILES PER HOUR.

NO ADDITIONAL CUMULATION DURING

THE DAY THOUGH ON SATURDAY, ALL

OF THAT HAPPENING BETWEEN NOW

AND ABOUT 10 O'CLOCK TONIGHT.

MODELS ARE INDICATING THE BEST

COVERAGE OF SNOW IS GOING TO BE

NORTH COME CLOSE OF THE

WISCONSIN STATE LINE, SO WHAT

KEEGAN, McHENRY IS A PLACE

WHERE WE COULD SEE 2 TO 4,

MAYBE FIVE INCH TOTALS.

SOUTHALL WE ARE TALKING

ABOUT/ACCUMULATION. BECAUSE OF

THAT PUSH OF MILDER AIR COMING

IN ITS OVERRIDING THE SYSTEM

AND OVERRIDING THE COLD AIR IN

PLACE.

THAT IS ALSO GOING TO

CONTRIBUTE TO SOME ICING.

WE COULD SEE A GLAZE OVER THE

ROADWAY. WE WANT TO BE WATCHFUL

FOR THAT AS VISIBILITY DROPS

WITH THE SNOW ACTIVITY.

TOMORROW IN THE MORNING AT

EIGHT WE ARE GOING TO HAVE

STEADY RAIN SHOWERS AND THEN WE

HAD OUR DAYTIME HIGH AT 10 AM,

TEMPERATURES START DROPPING

AFTER THAT.

LOOK AT SUNDAY'S HIGH, A DOZEN

DEGREES WITH SOME SUNSHINE, BUT
