I read 4-8 inches to in chicago. Is there already snow or ice on the ground to go on top of that?! or was it clean to begin with . . .

The roads were clear before this.

I'm not in Chicago - 120 miles south, but I was up there Saturday and Sunday.

I'm 2 miles West of the city. I can tell you that we currently have about 6 inches here. It is still snowing. We're expected to have between 8 and 10 total by tonight with 50+ mph winds.

I think you should be fine tomorrow, provided we don't get too much more. The streets are passable. So O'Hare & Midway should have things together also.

The roads are better today except for the people that over react to the snow, and the idiots that still talk on their cell phones and not pay attention to the roads.

Do us all a favor and stay alert and off the cell phones!!!
