[December 07, 2007]  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.

The National Weather Service in Lincoln has issued a winter storm watch in effect from Saturday evening through Sunday afternoon for the counties of Knox, Stark, Peoria, Marshall, Woodford, Fulton, Tazewell, McLean, Schuyler, Mason, Logan, DeWitt, Piatt, Cass, Menard, Scott, Morgan, Sangamon and Macon, including the cities of Galesburg, Peoria, Bloomington, Normal, Havana, Lincoln, Jacksonville, Springfield and Decatur.

A winter storm watch means there is a potential for significant snow, sleet or ice accumulations that may affect travel. Continue to monitor the latest forecasts.
