Saturday is expected to be a messy day. Throughout much of the afternoon, temperatures will be right around freezing with a mix of rain and snow.

Areas along the Wisconsin-Illinois border will see some fog and freezing rain.

Martinez mentioned that light snow is expected to start forming around 5 p.m. Scattered snow showers will likely continue in various areas until approximately midnight to 1 a.m. on Sunday.

Lake-effect snow showers are expected on Sunday morning, especially in northwest Indiana.

The snow could make roads and other untreated surfaces slick, Martinez said. Use caution when driving and walking outdoors.

This comes after snow showers lasted between 6 p.m. and 10 p.m. Friday, impacting the evening commute.

Snow totals Friday:

  • Lake Villa: 2.5 inches

  • Elk Grove Village: 2.5 inches

  • Carol Stream: 2.5 inches

  • Gurnee: 2.3 inches

  • Elgin: 2.1 inches

  • O’Hare: 1.8 inches

And the Chicago area was hit by its most significant measurable snowfall of the season earlier this week.
