Quick round of wet snow and sleet hits St. Louis Saturday evening

The further west you travel, the higher the snow totals will be. I-70 will have icy areas through Sunday morning.

ST. LOUIS — Just about as soon as the snow and sleet started up this afternoon, so did the accidents. Roads, especially bridges and overpasses, will be slick through Sunday morning.

Snow totals aren't expected to be high, but coupled with the temperatures plummeting into the 20s overnight, ice will be a concern.
