It's amazing to look at a regional map where there's a deep snow pack versus where the snow pack is less or non-existent. Just look out west, for example. Temperatures in Plains have soared into the upper 30s and upper 40s all before 7am! Contrast that to the teens we're currently sitting at across Northern Illinois and Southern Wisconsin.
Strong southwest winds will pull in a little of the warmth building to the west, but with nearly 13" of snow still on the ground we'll likely stop in the middle 30s for highs today. Over the next couple of days we'll shave off a little of the snow pack but keep in mind that the melting snow and increasing temperatures could also cause a little more fog to develop. An issue that looks very likely for Thursday, along with many others. More on Thursday's system coming soon.
