... Snow moving out... patchy freezing drizzle developing...
The accumulating snows will come to an end from west to east
across central and southeast Illinois this evening. Total
snow accumulations could reach between 1 to 2 inches south of
Interstate 72... while snowfall should remain under a half inch in
most areas north of I-72.
After the snow moves out... patchy freezing drizzle is expected to
develop and continue through the overnight hours... into Tuesday
morning. As temperatures slip back into the upper 20s
overnight... the freezing drizzle will likely cause some slippery
spots on area roads. The slippery driving conditions could last
through the morning commute.
Anyone planning travel overnight should be aware of slippery
Road conditions. Be especially cautious on elevated Road surfaces
such as bridges and overpasses which typically see ice formation
before other areas.
