A Winter Weather Advisory will be in effect from noon Friday to 3 a.m. Saturday for Daviess County.

Mixed precipitation is expected. Total snow and sleet accumulations of up to two inches are expected generally along and north of a line from Perryville, Mo. to Marion, Ill. to Owensboro. Further south, ice accumulations of
around one to two tenths of an inch are expected.

Precipitation will begin in southeast Missouri and southwest Illinois early Friday afternoon and then progress eastward to include the entire region during the evening.

Plan on slippery road conditions. The hazardous conditions could impact the afternoon and evening
commute home from school and work, and also during evening school activities. Bridges, elevated surfaces, and untreated roadways will tend to freeze first. Even very small amounts of ice can produce very dangerous driving conditions.

A Winter Weather Advisory means that periods of snow, sleet or freezing rain will cause travel difficulties. Expect slippery roads and limited visibilities, and use caution while driving.
