...WINTER STORM WARNING REMAINS IN EFFECT FROM 7 AM SUNDAY TO 1 PM
EST MONDAY...

* WHAT...Heavy mixed precipitation expected. Total snow and sleet
  accumulations between 5 and 8 inches and ice accumulations around
  a tenth of an inch. Winds gusting as high as 30 to 35 mph.

* WHERE...Portions of central, south central, southeast, and
  southwest Indiana.

* WHEN...From 7 AM Sunday to 1 PM EST Monday.

* IMPACTS...Roads, and especially bridges and overpasses, will
  likely become slick and hazardous. The strong winds and weight of
  snow on tree limbs may down power lines and could cause sporadic
  power outages. Significant ice accumulation on power lines and
  tree limbs may cause widespread and long-lasting power outages.
  Power outages and tree damage are likely due to the ice. Travel
  could be nearly impossible. The hazardous conditions could impact
  the Monday morning commute.

PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...

If you must travel, keep an extra flashlight, food, and water in
your vehicle in case of an emergency. The latest road conditions for
the state you are calling from can be obtained by calling 5 1 1.

Persons should consider delaying all travel. If travel is absolutely
necessary, drive with extreme caution. Consider taking a winter
storm kit along with you, including such items as tire chains,
booster cables, flashlight, shovel, blankets and extra clothing.
Also take water, a first aid kit, and anything else that would help
you survive in case you become stranded.
