north and west suburbs especially, wednesday night into thursday morning. how warm does the ground become with three days of temperatures well above average? will it snow heavily enough to overcome the fact that temperatures will be around freezing or above freeszing and how long does that moisture remain into thursday? all of these factors will start to influence how much snow we will see. but it's going to feel like we walked through the cup board and emerged in narnia on thursday morning you're going to enjoy record temperatures wednesday afternoon and most of the snow will have fallen in thursday. everything is going to look white on thursday morning for much of the area. it's still evolving. i'll keep you posted. >> don is up next with sports. >> i can't top that at all. here's what i got though. the sixers may have a trade in place and the flyers with
