A WINTER WEATHER ADVISORY is in effect for the Greater Rockford area until 6 am Tuesday. It has been dropped for Stephenson County, and the rest of far northwestern Illinois. A weather system will continue to progress eastward across the area overnight. The Greater Rockford area is very close to the back edge to the snow, so no additional accumulation wtih the snow ending before midnight. There could be some flurries ovenight, and on Tuesday, but no accumulation is anticipated. As it gets colder the roads freeze up it will get very slippery. . The high temperature will be in the middle 20's, but with cold air feeding into the Stateline, temperatures will drop to near 20 degrees by sunset. Skies will be partly cloudy, and it will be colder on Tuesday night with a low around 5 above. It will be cold for the rest of the week as arctic air settles into northern Illinois.
