Near white-out conditions Friday morning

9:30 am Update:  Wind gusts close to 60 mph have been reported near the town of Nora, in Jo Davies County.  Law enforcement and trained spotters continue to report blowing and drifting snow across far NW IL with the inch or two of snow that fell this morning.  Near white-out conditions will be possible through the afternoon for Northern Illinois.















West and Southwest winds gusting as high as 50 mph Friday morning will produce near white-out conditions in open and rural areas as the light snow continues to fall.  The snow will move out, but the winds will stay gusty through the afternoon.  Blowing snow with what little has fallen will still remain likely into the afternoon.
