Light snow will overspread the area this morning, mixing with or
changing to sleet and freezing rain this evening. This sleet and
freezing rain mixture is expected to continue through the night and
not change to rain until late Wednesday morning when temperatures
finally rise above freezing. Total snow accumulations of 1 to 3
inches are possible, while total ice accumulations are expected to
range from one-tenth to one-quarter of an inch, with the heaviest
amounts being in east-central Illinois. A winter weather advisory
means that periods of snow, sleet or freezing rain will cause travel
difficulties. Be prepared for slippery roads and limited
visibilities, and use caution while driving.
