How Much Will it Snow in Evanston Today?

EVANSTON, IL - A clear Monday morning quickly turned into snow flurries, and soon, some accumulation.

According to James Maiworm, bureau chief of infrastructure maintenance for the city of Evanston, a quick burst of lake effect snow is expected to dump anywhere from half-an-inch to an inch of snow.

It started around 8:30 a.m. and is expected to be “very intense” for about 45 minutes to an hour and then diminish to flurries before stopping around 3 p.m.

“Last night Public Works crews ant-iced all main and secondary roads,” said Maiworm. “Crews are on standby and will respond as soon as the snow begins to fall.”
