At Chicago's O'Hare International Airport this morning, 0.6" of snow fell. That's a lot for April 18th! In fact, it was enough to beat the record snowfall of 0.4" of snow that fell on this date way back in 1910!
No records fell at the Rockford Airport this morning as only a trace of snow was recorded. Many outlying areas saw close to an inch of snow, however. Overnight and Tuesday, look for more precipitation to fall as low pressure to our southwest travels along a frontal zone that extends from southern Illinois back into southern Kansas. The precipitation will fall as a mixture of rain and snow tonight, then mainly rain tomorrow. Some thunder could be heard across the Stateline, with severe storms possible just 100 or so miles to our south.
