Snowfalls have topped 8" in the northern suburbs--and it's still snowing. 10-12" totals likely in a few harder hit locations there by morning. The Winter Weather Advisory's been upgraded to a winter storm warning there. O'Hare's 3.8" through 6PM is the city's heaviest of the season and it's already tied the 1935 record for the date--and that tally's to climb overnight. From south to north, the greater Chicago metro area's recorded 1.2" south to 8.2" northern suburbs and the storm's snowfall's not over. An additional 1-2" a good bet Wednesday. Some storm snow totals through 6pm: 8.2" Beach Park; 8" near Bull Valley in Mc Henry County, 7.4" Woodstock; 7.2"Lindenhurst; 7" Gurnee; 7.2"; 6.5" Antioch & Waukegan; 6" Schaumburg; 5" St. Charles; 4.5" Aurora and Spring Grove. Kankakee's checked in with just 1.6"; Peotone 2.1", Romeoville 1.5", South Loop 1.5" and Midway's at 1.9".
