Cold Air Sunday Transitions to Snowy Monday

Sunday morning's bitterly cold temperatures were a rare occurrence.  Officially at Rockford International Airport, we plummeted to 9°F with a wind chill of -1°F. The last time we saw temps that cold in the month of November over 22 years ago!

Since we're well below freezing, any precipitation we get will be, without question, snow.  And with another cold front invading the Stateline on Monday, we can expect more snow.  Most of the computer models agree that the snow will start up around the morning commute and continue until the mid-afternoon.  Give yourself a little extra time to drive to work.

And we're not talking about historic snow amounts, this computer model indicates that some areas may see up to 2", but I think more likely most of the area will see 0.5"- 1". -MT
