Full Notification

A band of snow will sweep move across northern Illinois this evening. Though the snow may only last for two to three hours at any given location, snowfall rates could approach 1 inch per hour, resulting in quick accumulations on roadways. Sharply reduced visibility under one half mile and winds gusting as high as 30 mph will further exacerbate the hazardous travel conditions. Prepare for rapidly changing conditions if traveling this evening. The snow is expected to taper off later this evening. Overnight there is a 20 percent chance for some patchy freezing drizzle, which could lead to a minor glaze of ice.
