Quad Cities, IL – A storm system is expected to bring rain and snow across the area starting Monday afternoon.
The National Weather Service warns that rain will begin in the afternoon, especially for areas south of Highway 20. By late evening, the rain may mix with or turn into snow. This precipitation could continue into Tuesday morning before tapering off by midday.
According to the National Weather Service, snowfall accumulations up to one inch are likely on grassy and elevated surfaces. However, totals could exceed one inch if temperatures drop faster and the changeover to snow occurs quickly. Warmer conditions could limit accumulation to minimal levels.
The forecast emphasizes uncertainty about the timing and exact location of the rain-to-snow transition. Residents should prepare for varying conditions. Elevated surfaces and untreated roads could become slick overnight. Drivers should allow extra time for their Tuesday morning commute.
The National Weather Service advises monitoring updates through local channels. Those traveling in Iowa and Illinois can find detailed road conditions at 511ia.com and gettingaroundillinois.com.
