Accumulating lake effect snow possible in South Chicago suburbs Thursday and Friday

Chicago’s first snow of the 2026-27 season could come Thursday night into Friday, according to predictions from the National Weather Service (NWS). Here’s the kicker—what was previously projected to amount to a few flurries could turn into up to an inch of accumulation in some areas. Here’s a breakdown of the forecast and what to expect. “Slushy accumulations” of lake effect snow possible late Thursday into Friday The NWS issued a Special Weather Statement Thursday morning for Southern and Eastern portions of Cook County, as well as portions of Northwest Indiana and areas along the Illinois I-57 corridor. The weather statement predicts accumulating lake effect snow beginning Thursday night and continuing into Friday morning. The NWS notes that a “band” of rain will turn into snow overnight, causing “localized slushy accumulations” along its path. The rainy and snowy mix could impact the Friday morning commute. “Those driving late tonight through Friday morning should allow for extra travel time and plan for potentially slick roads and sudden sharp visibility reductions,” said the NWS. Areas south and east of Chicago could see highest accumulations According to NWS predictions, areas south and east of Chicago could see the highest accumulations of snow Thursday

A political musical chairs game

Happy Veterans Day, Illinois. Today, and every day, we’re grateful to those who served. TOP TALKER WHAT IF? One big political move could trigger a chain reaction of vacancies in Illinois. From the governor’s mansion to City Hall and the county board, here’s how succession dominoes could fall. Starting at the top: If Gov. JB Pritzker were to run and win the presidency, he would resign as Illinois’ top elected official and incoming Lt. Gov. Christian Mitchell would take over as governor. No special election is required under the Illinois Constitution. That’s what happened when former Lt. Gov. Pat Quinn became governor in 2009 after then-Gov. Rod Blagojevich was removed from office. If Mitchell moves into the governor’s office, his former office would “remain vacant until the end of the term,” per the Illinois Constitution. The calendar matters: If Secretary of State Alexi Giannoulias wins the Chicago mayor’s race next year, the governor would appoint someone to fill the seat, and a 28-month calculation would kick in: Under the Illinois Election Code , if more than 28 months remain in Giannoulias’ term, voters would choose a successor at the next general election. Otherwise, an appointee would serve out the term.
