Special Statement
Statement as of 1:16 am CST on February 11, 2012

... Slick roads possible into early this morning...
... Wind chills dropping into the single digits by sunrise...

Scattered flurries are possible the rest of tonight... with no
additional accumulations expected. However... residual moisture on
area roadways has already begun to freeze... causing a number of
accidents over parts of the quad state area... especially east of
the Mississippi River. Slick conditions in these areas are
expected to continue through around 9 am... with bridges and overpasses
being particularly dangerous. Motorists late tonight and early
Saturday should slow down and be prepared for patches of black
ice. Once the sun rises this morning it should not take long for
conditions to improve.

The combination of gusty northwest winds and temperatures falling
to near 20 degrees by sunrise will create wind chills in the
single digits above zero throughout the four state region. Wind
chills are not likely to climb above 15 degrees anywhere during
the day Saturday... despite sunny skies.
