...SLUSHY ACCUMULATIONS OF SNOW ON BRIDGES AND OVERPASSES NORTH OF
INTERSTATE 88 TONIGHT...

A passing weather system will bring rain and snow to northern
Illinois overnight starting as early as 10 PM west of I-39 and
after midnight east of I-39. North of Interstate 88, a period of
primarily snow is expected especially from midnight to daybreak
Sunday, and possibly linger through 9 AM Sunday.

With cooling temperatures toward the freezing mark and expected
peak snow rates up to one half of an inch per hour, 1 to 2 inches
of slushy snow may accumulate on bridges, overpasses, decks, and
grass leading to locally slick road conditions.

If planning to travel overnight and tomorrow morning, prepare for
extra time and watch for slick spots, especially on bridges and
overpasses.
