1 p.m. Update

The City of Evanston has declared a Snow Route Parking Ban for tonight, beginning at 11 p.m. and extending through 6 a.m. tomorrow.

Emergency sirens will sound at 8:15 p.m. to remind you to move your car from the designated routes.

Even if plows have been through, snow removal operations may require return visits by city trucks. During a Snow Route Parking Ban, vehicles are subject to ticketing, towing, and storage charges.

The plume of snow over Evanston moved south and east of the city shortly before noon after dumping about two inches on the area.
