The Chicago area has a winter weather advisory for this evening, as we're expecting anywhere from one to four inches of snow and/or freezing rain. But that could serve as a prelude to a bigger storm later in the week. For those of you dreaming of a White Christmas, be careful what you wish for.

Both the National Weather Service and Tom Skilling are keeping eyes out on a storm front that's just now developing in Colorado and could pick up steam as it reaches the area Thursday. That storm front will make anyone's commute for Christmas (right here) a bit treacherous.
