Central Missouri's Audrain, Boone, Callaway, Cole, Gasconade, Maries, Moniteau, Morgan and Osage counties are included in the potentially affected area, among others.

WHAT...Snow. Additional snow accumulations of around one inch.
WHERE...Portions of central, east central and northeast Missouri and southwest and west central Illinois.
WHEN...Until 6 AM CST Thursday.
IMPACTS...Plan on slippery road conditions. The hazardous conditions could impact the evening commute.
PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS... A Winter Weather Advisory for snow means that periods of accumulating snow will primarily cause travel difficulties.
