Despite the bright sunshine of Thursday, temperatures were only able to reach the teens including 14 degrees in Rockford. Quickly as the sun set, temperatures shot down into the single digits and below zero. Wind chills were as low as -15 degrees for the second night in a row. But as arctic high pressure pulls out of the area, we will see an increase in "warmer" Southwest winds. This will aid to bring temperatures back to the teens by 8-9AM and mid-20s for the afternoon high.
Next chance for some flurries or light mix will arrive Friday evening-night, with the bulk of precipitation remaining North of the Stateline. We will only see influence from a weaker cold front here, keeping precipitation on the lighter side. Better chances for snow will arrive Saturday night with a potential for a couple inches of accumulation.
