Good morning, Illinois! Drive cautiously this morning��slick spots may still be present despite overnight salting. Conditions will improve as temperatures rise, but slow down, keep extra stopping distance, and stay alert. Sidewalks and parking lots are slippery, too!

The freezing rain and drizzle will impact your evening commute and continue into the overnight hours. Roads that appear clear can be very slippery, so take it slow. If transit is an option for your Thursday morning commute, please strongly consider it.
