Thursday was more of the same from what we saw on Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday. Lots of sunshine but well-below average temperatures.
We'll actually see more cloud cover today as surface winds turn more to the northeast. This will not only drag moisture off of Lake Michigan but also provide us with a chance for snow showers.
As of this morning, there are no winter weather alerts for the Stateline, though alerts currently hug the Lake Michigan shoreline into northwest Indiana. For us, we may see a snow shower or two push inland enough to reach the I-39 corridor. This will primarily be during the afternoon and early evening hours.
Those who do get in on today's snow potential could see a dusting to .5". Closer to Lake Michigan, snow totals could range from 4"-6" around the Chicago area to 6-10" in northwest Indiana.
Our best chance for snow holds off until the end of the weekend. Until then, we are dry but chilly with afternoon highs climbing back into the 20s. A clipper system and it's associated cold front will be behind the snow chances that arrive late Sunday evening into the early stages of Monday. It doesn't look impressive at the moment, though it may be enough to form a few slick spots come Monday morning.
