Flurries and a little Freezing Drizzle

7:35am Update:  Just as I post this...and just as I figured...the Freezing Rain Advisory for Whiteside County has been cancelled.  While we likely won't see advisory type precip the rest of this morning, there are a few flurries/freezing drizzle that have redeveloped and will likely continue through the rest of the morning and maybe even into the afternoon.

A Freezing Rain Advisory continues for Whiteside and Lee Counties through mid-morning as southerly winds bring moisture into the Stateline and temperatures south of Rockford sit in the mid and upper 20s.  Light snow fell earlier this morning and we will likely continue to see a few flurries throughout the day as another clipper system moves through.  Very light freezing drizzle/rain could mix in with those flurries as warmer air is found a few thousand feet above.  While icy accumulations are not expected, roads may be a little on the slick side.  The majority of the precipitation has already pushed off to the east so the freezing rain threat is pretty low at this point.
