Snow Chances Again, Slippery Travel Possible In Chicago Area

ILLINOIS — Parts of the Chicago area will see some snow to close out the work week as a low-pressure system brings the potential for accumulating snow and slippery travel Thursday night through Friday morning, according to the National Weather Service.

"A storm system will bring another chance for accumulating snow to close out the work week, mainly for areas north of Interstate 80 and near the lake," the weather service said.

The high is 36 degrees for both Thursday and Friday.

The weather service said that a period of snow is expected late Thursday afternoon into the evening, especially north of I-80. Up to an inch of accumulation is possible, mainly near the Wisconsin border.

Additional snow showers could develop late Thursday, and snow showers are likely early Friday morning with "some localized accumulations generally less than an inch," the weather service said.

Snow will continue near the lake Friday afternoon and night, especially in northwest Indiana.
