Mother Nature is giving us very much Midwest weather on "Twosday". If you thought 2-22-2022 was going to be a beautiful day due to the fact that we've had pretty nice weather days over the past week, you'd be wrong. Temperatures are warmer Tuesday morning but as they start to fall, freezing ice will give us ice accumulation causing slick roads. This has prompted the National Weather Service of the Quad Cities to issue a Winter Weather Advisory for most of the Quad Cities.
