Freezing Rain Advisory

***The National Weather Service in the Quad Cities has issued a Freezing Rain Advisory for the counties of Stephenson, Jo Daviess, Carroll and Whiteside from 6 am Wednesday to 6 am Thursday***

Freezing rain combined with sleet will begin Wednesday morning south of highway 20 and begin to move northward as warm, moist air flows over cooler, drier air at the surface.  Ice accumulations of up a quarter of an inch are possible in some areas.  This will cause the morning and evening commute to become hazardous through Thursday morning.  Power outages will also be a possibility if we see more ice accumulation.  Keep checking back to get the latest information on this upcoming storm.
