...LOCALLY HAZARDOUS TRAVEL DUE TO BAND OF SNOW EARLY THIS
MORNING...
A BAND OF SNOW WILL SLIDE INTO PORTIONS OF LASALLE, GRUNDY,
SOUTHERN WILL, AND KANKAKEE COUNTIES EARLY THIS MORNING. THE MOST
INTENSE PORTION OF THE BAND OF SNOW IS VERY NARROW, ONLY 5 TO 10
MILES WIDE, AND WILL TRACK ALONG AN AXIS FROM TROY GROVE TO
OTTAWA, SENECA, COAL CITY, KANKAKEE, AND HOPKINS PARK, INCLUDING
PORTIONS OF INTERSTATE 39, 80, 55, AND 57. SNOW WILL FALL FOR
SEVERAL HOURS BENEATH THE BAND, AND END TOWARD DAYBREAK.
SNOW RATES UP TO ONE INCH PER HOUR WILL REDUCE VISIBILITY BELOW ONE
QUARTER OF A MILE, AND LEAD TO QUICK ACCUMULATIONS OF SNOW ON
ROADWAYS. LOCALIZED SNOW TOTALS OF 1 TO 4 INCHES ARE EXPECTED
WITHIN THE NARROW BAND. SINCE THE BAND OF SNOW IS SO NARROW, ROAD
CONDITIONS WILL CHANGE RAPIDLY ACROSS THE AREA. MOTORIST ARE
ENCOURAGED TO PREPARE FOR RAPIDLY CHANGING VISIBILITIES AND ROAD
CONDITIONS WHEN TRAVELING ACROSS THE AREA EARLY THIS MORNING.
