Freezing rain chances will continue Saturday, with the greatest potential of accumulating ice expected Saturday night into Sunday. By the end of the event, ice totals will range from a tenth of an inch across northern Missouri to three quarters of an inch for areas along and south of the I-70 corridor. Hazardous travel conditions are expected throughout the weekend, and isolated power outages remain possible. An Ice Storm Warning remains in effect through Sunday.
