A wintry system approaching Chicago may bring dangerous snow squalls, characterized by intense bursts of snow and strong winds that can create whiteout conditions. These squalls can significantly reduce visibility and lead to hazardous travel, especially during the evening commute. The National Weather Service warns of the risks associated with exiting vehicles during such conditions, as they can lead to serious accidents. A snow squall warning is currently in effect in several Wisconsin counties, with similar conditions expected in Chicago after sunset.
