...WINTER WEATHER ADVISORY IN EFFECT FROM 6 PM CST THIS EVENING
TO NOON CST FRIDAY...

* WHAT...Snow expected. Total snow accumulations of 1 to 3 inches,
with isolated totals up to 4 inches possible.

* WHERE...Portions of central, east central, north central and
northeast Illinois and northwest Indiana.

* WHEN...From 6 PM CST this evening to noon CST Friday.

* IMPACTS...Plan on slippery road conditions. While snow will
taper off and end late tonight, areas of blowing snow and
drifting snow late tonight and Friday morning will continue to

reduce visibility in open areas, and drifting snow will keep
exposed roadways snow covered in open areas. The hazardous

open and outlying areas. In addition, cold wind chills as low
as 5 to 20 below zero could result in hypothermia if precautions
are not taken.

PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...

Slow down and use caution while traveling.
