Light snow will be possible this afternoon, with a steadier
snowfall expected tonight, especially along and north of Interstate
74. Farther south, a mixture of snow, sleet and freezing rain can be
expected, with more freezing rain and sleet than snow as you head
south of Interstate 72.
Snow accumulations of 2 to 3 inches can be expected along and
north of Interstate 74, with locally higher amounts possible by
Thursday morning. Farther south, ice accumulations of less than a
quarter of an inch can be expected overnight and into Thursday
morning, certainly enough to affect the tail end of this evening's
rush hour and tomorrow morning's drive in to work or school.
