Below freezing temperatures at
the surface in combination with warm, moist air pushing in from the
south will result in sleet and freezing rain across the central
portions of the state Saturday night and into Sunday. Areas slated
to see significant ice accumulation Saturday evening through Sunday
evening are between interstates 72 and 74. |
