CHICAGO (WBBM NEWSRADIO) -- Get ready for another snowy weekend.
A Winter Weather Advisory is in effect for Cook, DuPage, Ford, Grundy, Iroquois, Kane, Kankakee, Kendall, Lake, La Salle, Livingston and Will counties from 5 p.m. Friday until 6 a.m. on Saturday. The advisory begins at 2 p.m. for far western counties, including Boone, De Kalb, Lee, McHenry, Ogle, Winnebago.
"Several inches are possible" after the snowfall starts about noon Friday, according to National Weather Service meteorologist Charles Mott.
The snow might be mixed with freezing rain and will make driving dangerous, Mott said.
Mixed precipitation is expected, with a total of 2 to 4 inches snow and around one tenth of an inch of ice in Cook, DuPage, Kane, and Lake (IL) counites.
Saturday morning, the snow will turn to rain as temperatures rise above freezing, but could turn back into snow later that night, Mott said.
Ahead of the snow, temperatures won't rise above 25 degrees on Thursday.
Last week, a storm battered the city with more than two inches of snow, prompting more than 1,000 canceled flights.
Large waves closed down lakefront trails and tore up large sections of asphalt.
