Here is a look at the current radar as of 8:01 PM CT. Some lake effect mix currently east of Gary with snow mixing into the precipitation by the Chicago area.
Here is a look at current temperatures as of 7:45 PM. Note that temperatures are still above freezing across NW Indian with temperatures ranging from 35 F – 37 F.
Here is a look at a 6 panel of some simulated radar from 8 PM through 1 AM. We can continue to see lake effect precipitation through 1 AM. Overall this precipitation looks to be on the lighter side. Temperatures will struggle to to get to the freezing mark during this time which should limit any accumulation or freeze potential
Here is a look at simulated radar from 8 PM through 5 PM tomorrow.
Here is a look at temperatures from 8 PM tonight through 5 PM tomorrow. Temperatures look to slowly drop into the overnight. NW winds will overall aid in keeping most of the area with warmer temperatures. Temperatures will approach the 32 F mark with some isolated spots possibly reaching below. Due to the lighter nature of the precipitation, warmer surface temperatures, and the wind, minimal pavement issues/ refreeze risk is anticipated.
