A moderate snow storm system with potential snow accumulation of 4 to 5 inches is expected to strike the Chicago area late Friday and Saturday. The storm could possibly cause significant lake effect snow near Lake Michigan after it passes — adding 2-4 inches of additional snow.
In western New York, a truck jackknifes and then snow buries motorists stuck in the backup. The lake-effect storm dumps at least 2 feet of snow on the Buffalo area.
