Interesting pattern setting up this morning. That southern stream is very active but it doesn't look like most of the moisture will make it north in time. Even though there will be some phasing of the jet stream it will not be able to transport this moisture quickly enough to get to the northern part of the state.


You can see how active things are on the current surface map. Two very distinct weather systems. Also a distinct difference in temperatures with plains seeing more snowfall.
By 1pm we are still seeing colder air streaming in from the north as snow will began flying across northern Illinois.
There is a bit of phasing happening here but you can see the cold air is now across northern Indiana with some scattered snow showers.

By the end of the day Friday it looks like precipitation ends with the weather system well to the south.
Very interesting pattern setting up on Sunday Morning. Although it will be quiet it looks like two distinct weather systems once again with a strong split jet stream flow.
Although things look warm to begin on Monday there is still a considerable amount of cold air setting up across the plains
