...QUICK BURST OF SNOW EXPECTED TONIGHT...

A fast moving weather disturbance will sweep across northern
Illinois late this evening into the early overnight hours bringing
with it a quick burst of locally heavy snowfall. While snow may
only last for an hour or so, it could fall quite heavily for a
short time and drop a quick half inch to possibly an inch of
accumulation, mainly near and south of the I-90 corridor. In
addition to brief, but drastically reduced visibility, expect
roads to quickly become snow covered leading to hazardous travel
conditions.

If traveling tonight, be prepared to encounter snow covered roads
and use caution while driving in snow.
