...DANGEROUS TRAVEL CONDITIONS PERSIST ACROSS THE MID-SOUTH DUE
TO BLACK ICE AND MELTING SNOW... ...SUB-FREEZING TEMPERATURES AND
POWER OUTAGES INCREASE COLD WEATHER RISKS...

Impacts from recent winter weather will continue creating
hazardous conditions across the majority of the Midsouth tonight.

HAZARDOUS ROADWAYS AND BLACK ICE:
Roads across the region remain covered in snow, sleet, and solid
ice. Travel on secondary roads is virtually impossible in many
locations.

Even where main thoroughfares have been treated, motorists should
exercise extreme caution. Any slush or partial melting that
occurred during the day will rapidly refreeze as temperatures
drop below freezing at night. This will result in the formation
of widespread "black ice" -a transparent coating of ice that is
nearly invisible to drivers but extremely slippery.

PLEASE AVOID ALL NON-ESSENTIAL TRAVEL. If you must drive, keep a
flashlight, food, and water in your vehicle in case of an
emergency.

RECOMMENDED SAFETY ACTIONS:

HEAT SAFETY: If your power is out, NEVER use gas grills, charcoal
grills, or camping stoves indoors. These produce deadly carbon
monoxide gas which you cannot smell or see. Generators should be
operated outdoors only, at least 20 feet away from windows and
doors.

CONSERVE HEAT: Keep doors and windows closed. Close curtains and
blinds to trap heat inside. Stuff towels or rags in cracks under
doors. Close off unused rooms to avoid wasting heat.

LAYER CLOTHING: Wear loose-fitting, lightweight, warm clothing in
several layers rather than a single heavy layer. Wear a hat and
mittens to prevent body heat loss.

CHECK YOUR PIPES: In homes without heat, open cabinet doors
beneath kitchen and bathroom sinks to allow warmer air to
circulate around pipes. Allow faucets to drip to prevent freezing.

LOOK OUT FOR OTHERS: Check on elderly neighbors, friends, and
family to ensure they are safe and warm, especially if they live
alone or have lost power.

This Hazardous Weather Outlook is for portions of southern
Illinois, southwest Indiana, western Kentucky, and southeast
Missouri.

.DAY ONE...This Afternoon and Tonight

Wind chill temperatures could drop just below zero over portions
of southwest Indiana, southern Illinois, and southeast Missouri
late tonight.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...Friday through Wednesday

A Cold Weather Advisory is in effect for the entire Quad State
late Friday night through Saturday morning. Most of the region
will have wind chills ranging from 5 below to 10 below zero.

There are several periods of light snow or flurries possible
through Monday. Each could produce a light dusting, but given the
current snowpack, impacts should be minimal.

There is some potential for another round of wintry precipitation
next Tuesday into Wednesday. More substantial wintry
accumulations are possible, but confidence is quite low at this
time.

.SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...

Spotter activation is not anticipated.
