Scattered snow showers have started to fall in parts of the Chicago area Wednesday morning starting, with more possible throughout the day. The snow moved in from the east and was expected to impact travel across the area. “As it moves in, expect reduced visibilities and accumulating snow on roads, creating slippery travel conditions,” the National Weather Service warned Wednesday morning. “Give yourself extra time in your commute if you are traveling within the area on the map (north of I-88).” Rates of up to a quarter-inch per hour were possible, the NWS reported. As of 7:30 a.m., snow had already begun in parts of the Chicago area, with Illinois doppler radar showing scattered snow falling in Aurora and Joliet. By around 8 a.m. snow showers were becoming more widespread. Snow was expected to continue through the mid-morning hours, the NWS said. A lull in the afternoon was possible, with more show chances returning by evening, the NWS added, potentially impacting commutes.
