CBS News Chicago

CHICAGO (CBS) – More than 200 snow vehicles are out and about clearing residential streets, according to the Department of Streets and Sanitation.

Salt spreaders have been on the roads since Saturday as snow fell into early Sunday morning. Monday morning conditions may be dangerous for drivers in some areas in the city. 

The department says they'll continue to monitor the weather as freezing temperatures this week can cause potential slick and icy conditions.

A Winter Weather Advisory is posted for areas south of I-80. Areas south of the city may see freezing rain and light snow, causing dangerous road conditions.     

Travelers are urged to take precautions while on the road.

You can track the city's snow fleet in real time at chicagoshovels.org.
