WINTER STORM WARNING FROM 9 PM THIS EVENING UNTIL 9 PM FRIDAY

NOTE:  I would keep a close eye on the forecast as it can change.   I look for the National Weather Service to have a video conference soon.  I will provide a link to it below when it becomes available.

* WHAT…Heavy mixed precipitation expected. Isolated to
scattered power outages and tree damage may occur due to the ice
accumulation. Travel will be dangerous, including during the
morning commute on Friday. Total snow accumulations 1 to 3
inches may occur on top of up to one quarter inch of ice
accumulations.

* WHERE…Portions of southern Illinois, southwest Indiana,
western Kentucky, and southeast Missouri.

* WHEN…9 PM This Evening to 9 PM Friday Evening.

* ADDITIONAL DETAILS…Be prepared for significant reductions in
visibility at times. Strong and gusty winds may also increase
the hazard to power lines and tree branches weighted by the snow
and ice.

PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS…

A Winter Storm Warning means significant amounts of snow, sleet,
and ice are expected. This will make travel very hazardous or
impossible.
