First Alert Weather models show areas north of Evanston are most impacted by threat of ice. A glaze to one tenth of ice is possible.

This will likely lead to slick road conditions for the afternoon and evening commute.

The rain and ice threat diminishes by this evening, and temperatures will crash into the teens for lows.
