| Episode narrativeepisode_narrative | A mixture of sleet and freezing rain, accompanied by scattered thunderstorms produced rapid accumulations of ice. The heaviest precipitation fell as sleet with local accumulations of 1 to 2 inches. Glaze or sleet accumulations at most locations ranged from one-fourth to one-half inches. A fatal accident occurred on US Highway 36 five miles west of Belleville when a van overturned after hitting a guard rail. The accident occurred at 1250 PM CST from ice left over from the storm. Several other accidents also occurred, including a five car wreck. Overall the number of accidents was less than it could have been since the brunt of the storm occurred shortly before daybreak on a Sunday morning. |
