The next system coming in Thursday night is 'clipper' like, but it really doesn't have any surface features with it; meaning no surface low pressure. The majority of the forcing coming with this next snow will be from the upper levels of the atmosphere as a shortwave, or upper level disturbance, moves out of Alaska. Sometimes these upper level lows can be notorious for producing several inches of snow and it appears as though accumulating snow will be found from Nebraska through Iowa, Illinois, Indiana and into Michigan. While it's possible we could get a dusting of snow around the area, a quick one to maybe two inches of fluffy snow could fall south of I-88 after dark Thursday and into Friday morning. Looks like our southern most counties; Lee, Ogle and DeKalb have the best chance of seeing anything accumulate.
