Evanston is expected to get about a half inch of snow this morning, with most of it arriving around 8:30 or 9 a.m.
The National Weather Service says temperatures will be very cold overnight and cold temperatures and additional light amounts of snow are expected through Christmas day.
Assistant Public Works Director James Maiworm says crews will be out most of the day scraping and salting all streets to get clear pavement before the temperatures drop..
