Special Weather Statement issued January 10 at 2:13PM CST by NWS Quad Cities IA IL

Effective: Sat January 10, 2026, 2:13 PM
Expires: Sat January 10, 2026, 7:00 PM

Areas of light to moderate snow, with embedded heavier snow showers will continue to move eastward across the area through the evening. The heavier snow showers and possible squalls may produce gusty winds up to 35 MPH with passing bouts of sharply reduced visibility down to a half mile, especially south of Highway 30. Any snow accumulations will be localized and generally an inch or less. But there may be still some slushy localized accumulations in spots. The combination of reduced visibility and potential patches of slush on roads may result in difficult travel conditions this evening for some.

Snow showers are likely (50-70% chance) to develop along and behind a cold front this evening. Snow will move from west to east across the area between 5PM and 2AM CST. Snow could become heavy at times with localized accumulations possibly exceeding one inch, though not particularly likely (10-20% chance). In addition, west- northwest winds will occasionally gust between 25-35 mph, perhaps resulting in wind- whipped snow and sharply lower visibility over short distances. The combination of reduced visibility (one-half mile or less) and snow-covered roads may result in difficult travel conditions this evening for some, but not all, locations across central Illinois. There was careful consideration of a Winter Weather Advisory. However, both the confidence and coverage of advisory-level conditions remain unclear at this time.
