January chills at the end of March

Scattered flurries and snow showers will continue to move southeast across Northern Illinois through 11:30am Tuesday morning.  Additional accumulations will be minor, but the chill with the Northwest wind will be felt through the afternoon.  Winds gusting as high as 25-30 mph today will make the expected 30° feel more like the teens!

Teens is where we head tonight, but warmer days are ahead.  Winds will shift around to the southeast late Wednesday allowing temperatures to rise into the upper 30's during the afternoon.  Low pressure developing out of the Plains will continue to pull in a warm and moist air mass through Thursday with rain showers developing as early as Thursday morning and lasting through Friday morning.  Totals could near half to three quarters inch by Friday morning.
