THE SNOW PANTS AND BOOTS.

THANK GOD NOT NOW.

BUT WE HAVE POSSIBILITY OF

SOME SNOW.

I THINK WE REALLY NEED TO WATCH

THE SYSTEM THAT'S COMING

THROUGH STARTING TOMORROW GET

SOME RAIN FROM IT BUT THEN BY

FRIDAY INTO SATURDAY, HERE WE

GO WITH THE POTENTIAL FOR THAT

RAIN TO TRANSITION TO WINTRY

MIX AND POSSIBLY SOME SNOW.

THE QUESTION IS WHERE THE

SYSTEM GOES AT THIS POINT.

BECAUSE THERE'S A LOT OF ROOM

FOR ERROR.

JUST A SMALL MARGIN TO THE

NORTH OR SOUTH.

AND IT WILL CHANGE PRETTY MUCH

THE WHOLE FORECAST FOR WHETHER

OR NOT WE GET RAIN OR SNOW OR

FREEZING RAIN OR ICE

ACCUMULATION.

AND WE REALLY HAVE TO WATCH

THAT.

NANCY LA PORTE JUST 19 DEGREES

AND PAUL AT 19 AND I HAVE MARK

LUCAS IN HOMER GLENN ALSO ABOUT

19 DEGREES.

IT'S COLD OUT THERE FOR SURE.

IN WAUKEGAN 17 THE CURRENT

TEMPERATURE AND CLIMBING UP TO

AROUND THE LOW 20s TODAY.

SPENDING MOST OF THE AFTERNOON

THERE BUT AS I SAID EARLIER

WE'RE GOING TO START TO SEE THE

TEMPERATURES RISING OVERNIGHT.

AS WE BEGIN TO SEE A

SOUTHWESTERLY WIND FLOW.

THAT WIND FLOW PUMPING IN

MILDER AIR IN ADVANCE OF OUR

RAIN SYSTEM.

TODAY CLEARLY ANYTHING WE HAVE

ON THE MAP IS SNOW.

LITTLE BIT OF LIGHT LAKE EFFECT

IMPACTING FOLKS EAST OF LA

PORTE.

HOWEVER, WATCH THIS RADAR

TRACKER.

IT'S GOT RAIN IN THE FORECAST

FOR US LEADING THROUGH TOMORROW

REALLY STARTING AT ABOUT 3:00

TOMORROW AND THEN OFF AND ON

THROUGH THE DAY ON FRIDAY.

TRANSITIONING OVER TO A

RAIN/SNOW MIX AND SOME SNOW

EARLY SATURDAY.

AND COULD END UP AS PURELY SNOW

FOR US AS THE SYSTEM EXITS VERY

EARLY SUNDAY MORNING.

SO LET'S JUST LOOK AT ONE OF

OUR MODELS THE GFS MODEL HERE

TAKING US THROUGH THE SYSTEM

JUST TO SEE WHAT THEY'RE

PICKING OUT.

AT THIS POINT, THEY'VE SHIFTED

IT NORTH AND SOUTH A LITTLE

BIT.

WE HAVE 2.8 INCHES EXPECTED IN

CHICAGO.

THIS IS JUST A GOOD GUESS AT

THIS POINT BECAUSE THE MODELS

ARE NOT REALLY IN GREAT

AGREEMENT BUT CERTAINLY LOOKS

LIKE WE HAVE THE POTENTIAL TO

SEE SOME ACCUMULATING SNOW

COMING IN ON SATURDAY FOR AT

LEAST A PART OF THE AREA.

AND IT WON'T LAST THOUGH.

AUDI YEA AND RYAN BECAUSE TAKE

A LOOK AT MONDAY AND TUESDAY,

BACK UP TO 43 DEGREES AGAIN AND
