Chicago Weather: Quiet Until Thursday's Mix

CHICAGO (CBS) -- Mother Nature is giving us a break after all that snow over the weekend, and it will be quiet until Thursday.

The top three snow totals are impressive – with 15.3 inches in Monee, 13.8 inches in Harwood Heights, and 13.5 inches in Elmhurst.

The winter storm has now made its way to the East Coast, and more than a foot of snow is expected for New York City.

Back in the Chicago area, the low for Monday night is 21 with partly cloudy skies. There will only be some lakeside flurries or snow showers east of Gary Tuesday morning.
