NWS Meterologist in Lincoln Provides Update on Mid-Week Storm System

Central Illinois residents enjoyed spring-like weather over the weekend, however, there is a potential for a storm system that could bring rain and possibly snow into the area from late Tuesday night through Wednesday. James Auten, Meteorologist with the National Weather Service in Lincoln, told Regional Radio News that in the Taylorville area, it is possible that two inches of snow could fall, while the heaviest amounts could be further to the east of a line from Danville to Effingham.

Auten further stated that the majority of snow will occur during the day on Wednesday. Another factor is the wind as gusts could top at 40 M.P.H. at times during the afternoon and evening, which could result in a drifting of snow causing hazardous conditions. Auten says there is still some uncertainty with this storm system.
