Woodridge, IL – A winter storm is expected to bring snowfall to Illinois from Friday night into Saturday. Residents should prepare for hazardous travel conditions and potential disruptions.

According to the National Weather Service Chicago, the storm could bring accumulating snow and gusty winds. Forecast models indicate snowfall may begin late Friday and continue through Saturday morning. The exact accumulation remains uncertain, but slick roads and reduced visibility are likely.

Meteorologists urge residents to monitor forecasts and plan accordingly. Travel could be dangerous, especially during peak snowfall periods. Snow removal crews will be deployed, but road conditions may still be hazardous.

This storm follows a wintry mix earlier in the week, which brought ice and sleet to the region. Cold temperatures will persist, increasing the risk of icy patches on untreated roads and sidewalks.

Drivers should slow down, allow extra travel time, and keep emergency kits in their vehicles. Residents should also prepare for possible power outages due to heavy snow accumulation on power lines.
