2-12-20 Tovar Chicago N: Updated thinking of snowfall into tonight.V.

Good Wednesday Afternoon! 

Below is sim radar from 3 PM CT today from 6 AM CT tomorrow morning. The initial wave of precip will hang around into the early morning hours of tomorrow before transitioning to lake effect:

Sim temps during this same time:

Current favored snowfall out through Midnight tonight- right now we are favoring the overall majority of this to fall *on grassy elevated surfaces* as temps will be above freezing for much of the initial part of this event. We are favoring under an inch across the area by midnight:

A snapshot of snow falling from the sky from Midnight to 6 AM CT- we are favoring ~1″ of snow from the start to ~6 AM as pavement temps cool as we go later into the night:

Favored totals from 6 AM through Noon. Overall through the downtown metro area, we are favoring 1.5-2″ of pavement snow totals out through Noon- 

Check out city charts for an hour by hour breakdown of selected cities. Time are Military time and the snow shown is snow falling from the sky, NOT pavement impacts as just discussed above:
