Winter Weather Advisory


... Winter Weather Advisory remains in effect until 6 PM CST
Monday...

A Winter Weather Advisory remains in effect until 6 PM CST
Monday.

* Timing... light snow will develop across the area overnight
tonight and continue into Monday before mixing with drizzle and
light freezing drizzle during the late morning hours. The
wintry mix will linger through the afternoon before diminishing
by evening.

* Total snow and ice accumulations... 1 to 2 inches of snow is
expected across the area... primarily between 3 am and 10 am. A
period of freezing drizzle on Monday may also produce a thin
glaze of ice prior to temperatures rising above freezing.

* Winds... south winds of 10 to 20 mph with gusts around 25 mph.

* Impacts... the heaviest snowfall is expected to occur just
prior to and during the morning commute. Falling snow combined
with the winds may bring reductions in visibility to less than
a mile at times... as well as slick roadways. Freezing drizzle
through midday on Monday may also produce slick roadways as
well.

Precautionary/preparedness actions...

Wintry precipitation is forecast to accumulate in the affected
areas causing hazardous driving conditions. Those with travel
plans are advised to choose an alternate Route... or should use
extreme caution if travel is unavoidable.
