Snow Storm Heading Our Way

Have you been outside yet? Go for a walk. Soak up the sun. It won't be this warm Thursday.

After months of delaying the inevitable, it appears that Highland Park may finally be in store for a real winter (as opposed to some of the we've experienced lately). 

A winter storm watch has gone into effect, beginning Thursday morning and lasting through Friday morning, Wunderground reports. Highland Park could get hit with more than six inches of snow. It shouldn't be as bad as but it'll be the first real snow storm of the season.

The storm may make driving home from work "treacherous and even dangerous" according to the Lake County Winter Storm Watch warning issued Thursday.
