URBANA – Meteorologists are predicting Central Illinois will receive measurable snowfall on Friday afternoon and evening.
The National Weather Service has issued a Winter Weather Advisory from Friday at 6:00 p.m. until Saturday at noon for portions of central and west central Illinois. The cities of Galesburg, Havana, Jacksonville and Springfield are included in the advisory. The Weather Service says the area could receive between 2-4 inches of snow, resulting in slippery road conditions.
In the Champaign-Urbana area, meteorologists say snow will fall between Friday at 10:00 p.m. and Saturday at 7:00 a.m. New snow accumulation of less than one inch possible.
Light snow has ended across central IL late this morning. However, untreated roads will be snow covered and slippery across portions of central IL today as temperatures remain below freezing. Use caution if traveling into this afternoon. pic.twitter.com/se2P6mLjTZ

Good morning! The snow has mostly diminished across Illinois but as you can see, many roads are still troublesome. Blowing snow also could be a problem today.
Please remember to slow down and give plenty of space to other vehicles. pic.twitter.com/HBg6tgVoLh
