...Period of Accumulating Snow and Blowing Snow Friday Morning...

A quick moving weather system will bring a period of moderate to
briefly heavy snow to portions of northern Illinois and northwest
Indiana after sunrise Friday morning. While snowfall amounts are
only expected to be an inch or two, the snow is expected to
develop during the morning commute and will accumulate quickly
making for slick road conditions. In addition, winds gusting
to 35 mph will likely cause some blowing of snow and reduced
visibility. This combination of falling and blowing snow will
likely result in slow and slippery conditions for the morning
commute, before tapering off to lighter snow showers and flurries
by midday. Use caution heading out for your morning commute
Friday, and plan for the potential for slow travel.
