Today's Weather: Sun Before Snow

The sun is shining and everything looks lovely here at the Chicagoist office this morning. But don't let it fool you— it's the calm before the storm. Those sunbeams will fade this afternoon as clouds move in and winds increase this evening to 10 to 20 mph. We'll reach the mid-30s today, perfect weather for getting your Super Bowl party shopping done.
Tonight is when the real fun starts. Snow will develop in the early evening and become heavier throughout the night. We'll possibly see anywhere from eight to twelve inches so drag out your snow boots if you are heading to a party or bar to watch the big game tomorrow.
