This Hazardous Weather Outlook is for portions of North Central
Illinois...Northeast Illinois and Northwest Indiana.

.DAY ONE...Today and Tonight.

Weather hazards expected...

Limited Non thunderstorm wind Risk.
Elevated Fire Weather Risk south of I-80.

DISCUSSION...

Northeast winds are expected to gust to 30 mph area-wide this
afternoon. The combination of these gusty winds and dry conditions
will result in an elevated fire weather risk across primarily
central and east-central Illinois today.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...Monday through Saturday.

Monday...
Elevated Snow Risk, mainly west of Chicago
Elevated Sleet and Ice Accumulation Risk south of Interstate 80.
Limited Non Thunderstorm Wind Risk.
Limited Lakeshore Flood Risk in northeast Illinois.
Wednesday and Thursday...
Limited Non Thunderstorm Wind Risk.
Elevated Lakeshore Flood Risk.

DISCUSSION:

A broad low pressure system over the central U.S. will spread an
axis of wintry precipitation across the area on Monday. Some wet
snow and sleet accumulation is possible north of I-80 and
especially for areas near and west of I-39. Ice accumulations to
around one tenth of an inch and accumulating sleet may also occur
south of I-80, especially for bridges, overpasses, and untreated
and secondary roads. Additionally, easterly winds gusting over 30
mph late tonight and Monday may result in minor lakeshore flooding
along the Illinois shore, primarily north of Chicago.

A strong system will impact the area Wednesday night into
Thursday, with gusty winds and another potential for minor
lakeshore flooding.

.SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...

Spotter activation will not be necessary through tonight.
