Snow continues to fall across parts of the area this morning which will likely lead to slippery spots on roadways, especially on bridges and overpasses. Slow down and ensure you leave plenty of room between you and other vehicles if you will be out driving this morning. #ilwx pic.twitter.com/tZolhavdeP

[3:28 am] – Snow is starting to accumulate in and around Peoria. Road temperatures are a few degrees above freezing, so most roads are just wet at this time. However that is a different story on bridges and overpasses where surfaces are colder. Image courtesy of IL DOT. #ilwx pic.twitter.com/aRrqV7h2JF

With snow ❄️ likely tonight, be alert to changing road conditions. Conditions will be very difficult to judge with roadways that can seemingly turn wet to icy in very short distances. #stlwx #mowx #ilwx #midmowx pic.twitter.com/1a5GDkDj8x
