8:00pm Update: The Winter Storm Warning for Winnebago, Boone, Ogle and Green counties has been cancelled. The Winter Weather Advisory for Lee and Ogle counties has also been cancelled.
The heavy snow threat has ended across the immediate region as the heaviest of the snow is now well east. Wind gusts as high as 25-30 mph from the northwest will remain through the overnight so it's possible that there may be some blowing and drifting of the snow. Watch for slick roadways this evening and be safe if you have to travel tonight.
The Winter Weather Advisory has been cancelled for Stephenson, Jo Daviess, Carroll and Whtieside counties.
The snowfall is beginning to diminish from west to east this evening, but winds will remain fairly gusty from the north/northwest. Generally 2" to 4" has fallen with some minor accumulations expected around Rockford - points north, south and east. The snow that has fallen is very wet and now has turned to slush on roads. This has created some slick spots on area roadways and even though the snow will come to an end possibly dangerous travel conditions will persist through the overnight. It may be best to stay off roads tonight, but if you do have to travel please watch for icy spots
