As a result, the Red Flag Warning was expanded to include Cook, DuPage, Will, Kankakee, and Lake (IL) Counties until 8 PM this evening. * Affected Area...Winnebago, Boone, McHenry, Ogle, Lee, De Kalb, Kane, La Salle, Kendall, Grundy and Livingston. * Timing...Until 8 PM CST this evening. * Winds...Southwest 20 to 30 mph with gusts up to 50 mph. * Relative Humidity...As low as 15 to 20 percent. * Impacts...Any fire that develops will catch and spread quickly.

Even with rainfall last night generally 0.05 to 0.15 of an inch across northeastern Illinois, the combination of warm, dry, and windy conditions will cause fine fuels to dry out by early afternoon. As a result, the Red Flag Warning was expanded to include Cook, DuPage, Will, Kankakee, and Lake (IL) Counties until 8 PM this evening.

Fire Weather Watch
...A FIRE WEATHER WATCH IS IN EFFECT FOR WEDNESDAY... The combination of unseasonably warm temperatures (highs in the 60s), dry conditions (RH values around 15-25%), and gusty west- southwest winds (gusting around 35-40 mph) will lead to an elevated fire danger on Wednesday. While fuel moistures may be more questionable in some areas, local fire agencies indicate that finer fuels are primed and could lead to rapid fire spread in these conditions. For this reason, a Fire Weather Watch has been issued for portions of northern Illinois on Wednesday. Confidence in Red Flag Warning criteria being met is currently highest along and north of Interstate 88. The National Weather Service in Chicago has issued a Fire Weather Watch, which is in effect from Wednesday morning through Wednesday evening. * Affected Area...Winnebago, Boone, McHenry, Lake IL, Ogle, Lee, De Kalb, Kane, DuPage, Cook, La Salle, Kendall, Grundy and Will. * Timing...From Wednesday morning through Wednesday evening. * Winds...Southwest 15 to 25 mph with gusts up to 40 mph. * Relative Humidity...As low as 15 percent. * Impacts...Any fire that develops will catch and spread quickly.

Confidence is still low in whether eastern Cook County will be impacted by the lake effect band Friday afternoon and evening, if the band stays east over the lake into Indiana, then very little additional snow may occur.

Hydrologic Outlook
ESFLOT Cold temperatures this week have caused a significant increase in river ice across the area, including multiple ice jams. Cold temperatures are expected to continue into next week, with favorable conditions for river ice formation. Areas of open river may see new ice growth, while areas with existing ice cover my thicken. No widespread flooding is expected, but ice jams will be possible in isolated areas, especially along the Rock, Fox, and Kankakee rivers. Ice jams may cause rises or fluctuations on area rivers with little warning. Persons with interests along area rivers should closely monitor the latest forecasts.
