CLTV is providing continuous coverage of the winter storm which is expected to attack Chicagoland with a vengeance this afternoon, making for a tough evening commute.
The National Weather Service earlier upgraded the amount of snow it expects the storm to bring, forecasting more than a foot in areas north of the city and up to 8 to 9 inches in Chicago, meteorologist Rich Brumer said. A winter storm warning was expanded to include southern parts of the metropolitan area, including Will County and Lake and Porter Counties in northwest Indiana.
