Winter came early Tuesday morning with many waking up to what looked
like a winter wonderland. Snowfall totals ranged anywhere from a
trace/dusting, up to nearly three inches across parts of northwest
Illinois and Wisconsin. At the Eyewitness News studio we received 0.9
inches, with 0.5 inches falling at the Chicago Rockford International
Airport.
Skies were quick to clear Tuesday afternoon, quickly melting away the
snow from the
morning. Temperatures, however, remained on the cooler
side with highs only reaching the upper 30s, to near 40 degrees. Skies
will fill back with cloud cover Tuesday evening and overnight as the
next storm system moves in from the southwest.
This one will impact more of central and west-central Illinois where
Winter Weather Advisories have been issued for late Tuesday into
Wednesday morning. The majority of the
Stateline will stay dry through
early Wednesday but a light, chilly rain is expected to fall by the
afternoon. At times, this rain could mix with a little sleet or even a
few light snow showers.
