The big question on everyone’s mind today is….how much, if any, snow will we get? Forecasts range anywhere from an all rain event, freezing rain, or some models suggest we could get a half foot of snow or more. And while the amount is still unknown at this time, one thing is for sure…the first snow of the season is always a mess on the roads according to Sgt. Mark Zimmerman of the Illinois State Police…
For local roads, the city of Mt. Carmel took delivery last week on 150 tons of salts, officials had hoped they wouldn’t have to begin using this early in the season.
