Nothing sticking here in Belvidere.
Grass (and street) are white here around Newburg and Trainer.
Sticking now.
Just a light covering around here, but the roads are very slick. It's closer to driving on ice rather than snow.
yep, i just got back and the road are very icy and the ground is white. Did eric decide to take another day off today.
Just returned from Cherryvale Mall area. Roads are EXTREMELY SLICK! Tough to get going even in 4-wheel drive. Almost spun around at 10 mph. Multiple minor accidents on Perryville, Harrison, and State. Traffic has slowed to 30 mph or less. Stay home if at all possible.
