We continue to see scattered snow showers and flurries fly across the skies here in northern Illinois and southern Wisconsin thanks to an upper-level disturbance passing down the western Great Lakes. While this won't amount to much in the snowfall department, it will cause visibility to fall within the narrow, but at times intense, snow bands. Any additional accumulations from these are expected to remain minor, but hazardous travel will be likely through early Tuesday.
On top of the light snow we have coming down, winds are still gusty from time to time from the northwest. This has led to continued blowing and drifting snow, causing snow to blow back over roads and ice over.
Northwest winds will remain gusty around 20 mph through the night and into early Tuesday morning, so icy and slick conditions are likely to continue at least for some of the morning commute.
