Special Statement


... Accumulating snows ending... freezing drizzle developing...

The accumulating snows have come to an end in most of central and
southeast Illinois as of 11 PM. Additional snows may linger
through midnight east of a line from Bloomington... to
Champaign... to Lawrenceville. Total snow accumulations have
reached between 1 to 2 inches along and south of Interstate
72... while snowfall has remained under an inch in most areas north
of I-72.

Freezing drizzle has developed in the west... from Jacksonville to
Galesburg... and will continue spreading east overnight. Light
snow may periodically mix in with the freezing drizzle into
Tuesday morning. Icy and slippery roads will continue as
temperatures remain in the upper 20s. The hazardous driving
conditions could last through the morning commute.

Anyone planning travel overnight should be aware of icy and slippery
Road conditions. Be especially cautious on elevated Road surfaces
such as bridges and overpasses which typically see snow and ice
accumulation before other areas.
