As of the 5 a.m. <span id=\"more-21258\"><\/span> hour, snow was still falling in those areas, as northwest winds blew  over the relatively warmer waters of Lake Michigan. <\/p>\n<p>\nOnly 1 or 2 more inches of snow are expected for Northwest Indiana on  Thursday. Scattered flurries are expected on the Illinois side of the  lake, while the western suburbs can expect sunshine, CBS 2&#8242; reported. <\/p>\n<p>\nStill, the lake effect snow was severe enough for the Chicago Department  of Streets and Sanitation to call out 175 snow-fighting trucks to plow  main routes and Lake Shore Drive for the Thursday morning rush. <\/p>\n<p>\nConditions were horrific in many areas Wednesday night. For one example,  as of around 10:30 p.m. Wednesday, traffic was moving at a speed of  about 20 mph on the Ronald Reagan Memorial Tollway and the Eisenhower  Expressway, and cars were swerving and spinning out. There were  near-whiteout conditions along the route from DuPage County to the  city&#8217;s West Side. <\/p>\n<p>\nA total of 2 to 4 inches fell in the immediate Chicago area.<\/p>\n<p>\nHighs for Thursday are expected to reach about 28 degrees.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>Read the original article from <a  href=\"http:\/\/wbbm780.com\/content_page.php?contentType=4&amp;contentId=5645155\" title=\"Lake effect snow moving on\" rel='nofollow'>WBBM News Radio<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Distributed via <a href=\"http:\/\/chicagopressrelease.com\" rel='nofollow'>Chicago Press Release Services<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/feedads.g.doubleclick.net\/~a\/_smF6OIcf4Dv4eiBYNr1-uXms_M\/0\/da\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feedads.g.doubleclick.net\/~a\/_smF6OIcf4Dv4eiBYNr1-uXms_M\/0\/di\" border=\"0\" ismap=\"true\"><\/img><\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/feedads.g.doubleclick.net\/~a\/_smF6OIcf4Dv4eiBYNr1-uXms_M\/1\/da\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feedads.g.doubleclick.net\/~a\/_smF6OIcf4Dv4eiBYNr1-uXms_M\/1\/di\" border=\"0\" ismap=\"true\"><\/img><\/a><\/p>\n<div class=\"feedflare\">\n<a href=\"http:\/\/feeds.chicagopressrelease.com\/~ff\/windycitynews?a=_fuEcF-Rf4w:YKyuU0qmPCQ:yIl2AUoC8zA\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/windycitynews?d=yIl2AUoC8zA\" border=\"0\"><\/img><\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/feeds.chicagopressrelease.com\/~ff\/windycitynews?a=_fuEcF-Rf4w:YKyuU0qmPCQ:qj6IDK7rITs\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/windycitynews?d=qj6IDK7rITs\" border=\"0\"><\/img><\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/feeds.chicagopressrelease.com\/~ff\/windycitynews?a=_fuEcF-Rf4w:YKyuU0qmPCQ:V_sGLiPBpWU\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/windycitynews?i=_fuEcF-Rf4w:YKyuU0qmPCQ:V_sGLiPBpWU\" border=\"0\"><\/img><\/a>\n<\/div>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~r\/windycitynews\/~4\/_fuEcF-Rf4w\" height=\"1\" width=\"1\"\/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>CHICAGO (CBS\/STMW) &#8211;The worst of the latest lake-effect snowstorm is over now for the Chicago area, but plows scrambled overnight to clear the roads before the morning rush.
