...Quick Hitting Heavy Snow Showers Early this Afternoon...
A period of briefly heavy-falling snow showers will move through
northeast Illinois and northwest Indiana through 230 PM, including
the Chicago metro. Quick reduction in visibility to under one
quarter of a mile has been observed and will continue with these
snow showers. The rather short duration of the heavier snow bursts
should result in only minor accumulations, but enough to quickly
coat the roads and cause impacts.
Since roads will likely become at least lightly snow covered,
anyone planning to drive through early afternoon should leave
extra travel time and use extra caution, with increased following
distance.
