A MIX OF RAIN AND SNOW WILL CHANGE TO MAINLY SNOW ACROSS FAR
NORTH CENTRAL AND NORTHEAST ILLINOIS THROUGH 400 AM. THE SNOW
WILL LIKELY PERSIST THROUGH 600 TO 700 AM. TEMPERATURES NEAR AND
JUST ABOVE THE GROUND WILL BE TOO WARM FOR MUCH IF ANY OF THE SNOW
TO ACCUMULATE...HOWEVER A LIGHT DUSTING ON GRASSY SURFACES IS
POSSIBLE.
PERSONS PLANNING TRAVEL IN THE PREDAWN HOURS SHOULD BE PREPARED
TO ENCOUNTER REDUCED VISIBILITIES AND POSSIBLY SLIPPERY ROADWAYS.
THE MOST FAVORED AREA THROUGH 400 AM FOR SNOW IS A CORRIDOR FROM
THE BYRON AND OREGON AREAS EASTWARD NEAR ILLINOIS HIGHWAY 72 AND
INTO PORTIONS OF THE WESTERN AND NORTHERN SUBURBS...AS WELL AS
DOWNTOWN AND THE NORTH SIDE OF CHICAGO.
