(WBBM NEWSRADIO) -- Central Illinoisans who like their snow heavy and wet should be in for a treat Wednesday.
The National Weather Service on Monday said snow of up to 4 to 6 inches should begin just after midnight Wednesday and continue until mid-morning.
Ed Shimon said winds should not be a factor, but the accumulating heavy and wet snow will compact quickly and take a long time to melt.
The main areas of snowfall should be along the I-70 and I-72 corridors, with the totals probably greater in Decatur and Bloomington than in Springfield. The area is under a Winter Storm Watch from 9 p.m. Tuesday to 6 a.m.
