Winter Storm Headed Toward Galesburg -- WINTER STORM WATCH CHANGED TO WARNING
UPDATED 1:14pm 1/6/10 Parts of Illinois are preparing for another blast of winter weather.

The National Weather Service says a storm is on the way and several inches of snow are in the forecast.

A WINTER STORM WARNING is in effect for the Galesburg area 9pm Wednesday until 6am Friday, with 5 to 8 inches of snow possible, combined with blustery conditions that could significantly reduce visibility and cause drifting.

Warren County and some areas closer to the Mississippi River, meanwhile are under a WINTER STORM WARNING from 6pm Wednesday through midnight Thursday.

It will also continue to be very cold with high temperatures in the teens and a low Thursday night of 2-above and sub-zero wind chill readings.
