From Chicagoweather.com
"Blizzard conditions could arrive Tuesday night and continue into Wednesday, with northeast winds gusting above 40 mph whipping and blowing snow falling at a rate of 1 to 2 inches per hour creating whiteout conditions. Meanwhile across southern and portions of central Illinois and Indiana a broad area of freezing rain could build up a layer of glaze as much as a half-inch thick." i wish we were talking donuts here...
"As the low moves toward the east coast, carrying the heavy snow and freezing rain with it, a cold Arctic high pressure air mass will follow covering the plains and Midwest Thursday. In Chicago temperatures early Thursday morning will be near zero with wind chills 10 to 20 degrees below zero. The cold will begin to moderate Friday with readings approaching the 30-degree mark this coming weekend."
At least by Friday it will get "warm" again.
Thus I have started to think like a midwesterner.
sniff... sniff
