BLOOMINGTON – Heavy snow is hitting McLean County. A winter storm warning is in effect until 9 p.m. Sunday, as of publication time.

Patrick Bak with the National Weather Service in Lincoln said McLean County could see six-to-nine inches of snow by the end of the day Sunday. There will be a break in the snowfall sometime Sunday afternoon before snowfall resumes Sunday night, Bak said. The snow in the morning is wet and heavy while the snow at night will be drier, which means its more prone to snow drift and reduced visibility, Bak said. The National Weather Service is predicting wind gusts near 30 miles per hour Sunday night.
