An approaching winter storm may bring up to six inches of heavy, wet snow to the Homewood-Flossmoor area throughout Tuesday, according to an alert from the National Weather Service.
The wet mix is expected to begin Tuesday morning, continuing throughout the day and possibly into Wednesday morning. Freezing rain and sleet are also possible.
You can track the storm as it approaches the Chicago area using our live weather map. Just type in your zipcode or town to get a view of your neighborhood.
Up to 40 mph wind gusts and heavy precipitation are likely to make for difficult driving circumstances.

I'll believe it when I see it. Meteorologists have not been too accurate this year.

News media only hypes people up so people get hyped up, run to the store to do shopping for groceries, gas and other things. Calm down news weatherman, we will survive.
I am hyped up now......gotta go shopping and get gas that just went up 15 cents because of the weather. Bye.

OH MY GOD, ANOTHER BLIZZARD!! Well, what ever. I'd rather listen to the news and have gas for the snowblower and not need it, or food in the house that's going to get eaten either way than have to drive in crappy weather if I can avoid it. Media's just doing their job.

Well, that is why you should have a little bit of stuff on hand like gas and food. Be like a Boy Scout....Be prepared.

If you are able, please shovel the snow for a senior or physically challenged neighbor. Thanks.
