Weather on the 1s
The National Weather Service has issued a freezing rain advisory for northeast Illinois that warns of an ice storm that is expected to arrive about 11 a.m. and last until 9 p.m. this evening.
According to the agency, the region will be hit with freezing rain, possibly mixed with sleet, that will turn to rain as the temperatures rise above freezing in later afternoon or early evening. The agency warns of ice accumulation, up to a tenth-of-an-inch or two, making travel hazardous and possibly leading to downed tree limbs and power lines.
Because the ground is below freezing, the precipitation will freeze on contact, the agency said, leaving sidewalks as well as streets with that potentially dangerous coating of ice.
