More Snow Possible Christmas Morning

Area residents could wake Christmas morning to more snow.

Baby, it's cold outside. 

Really cold. 

The temperature around 8 a.m. on Christmas Eve morning was a frigid -3. Add in  the wind chill values Tuesday and that could feel more like -14 at its coldest point, according to the National Weather Service. 

Snow could follow the cold temperatures and provide a fresh blanket of snow to wake up to on Christmas morning. Snow is expected mainly after midnight in Algonquin with new snow accumulation of two to four inches, according to the National Weather Service. 

Blowing snow could make for hazardous driving conditions during the early morning hours, according to the NWS.  On Christmas Day, more snow could fall before noon and then again after 3 p.m. Mostly cloudy skies are in the forecast with a high of 26 degrees. 

Wind gusts could reach as high as 25 mph during the day on Wednesday, according to the NWS.
