   Areas affected...Central/Eastern MO...Western IL

   Concerning...Freezing rain 

   Valid 220927Z - 221430Z

   SUMMARY...Freezing rain, with rates generally from 0.01" to 0.03"
   per hour, is possible from central/eastern MO into western IL over
   the next few hours.

   DISCUSSION...Surface observations from central MO through western IL
   have increasingly reported freezing rain over the past hour as
   persistent light precipitation erodes any dry layers preventing
   precipitation from reaching the surface. The heaviest precipitation
   is currently moving northeastward through central MO, and the
   general expectation is for reports of freezing rain to become more
   widespread across eastern MO and western IL over the next hour or
   two. Precipitation is generally light, with observations over
   central MO near the heaviest precipitation generally reporting 0.01"
   to 0.03" an hour. These rates will likely hold as the heaviest
   precipitation translates northeastward over the next few hours.
   Thereafter, weakening warm-air advection should lead to lighter
   precipitation over the Lower OH Valley.
