More Snow Heads to Northern Illinois as Bitter Cold Moves In

Rockford Braces for Another Snow Event
After digging out from last weekend’s snowfall, Rockford isn’t getting much of a break. Another series of small but persistent weather systems is expected to move through Northern Illinois over the next few days, bringing more snow and frigid air.

Fast-Moving Winter Systems Across Northern Illinois
Meteorologists in Chicago and Rockford agree these won’t be major storms. They are expected to move in and out quickly, but while they linger, roads in the Rockford area will become messy and slippery.

First Snow Arrives Saturday Night, More to Follow
The first system is expected late Saturday into Sunday. Current projections suggest minor snow accumulations—generally an inch or two—but some areas could see more depending on where the storm sets up. Another round of winter storms is predicted for Monday, followed by a third later in the week.

Bitter Cold Adds to Rockford’s Winter Challenges
Temperatures will drop, with highs stuck in the mid-20s and wind chills dipping even lower. After nearly a foot of snow last weekend, residents are keeping a close eye on the forecast.

Light Snow and Freezing Conditions Keep Roads Busy
While none of the upcoming storms are expected to be severe on their own, the combination of light snow and freezing air will keep shovels, scrapers, and salt trucks busy throughout the season.
