Snow and Sleet Linger in East

From United Press International

A combination of snow and sleet lingered over the eastern part of the country today, forcing schools to remain closed for a third straight day in Southern Illinois and leaving roads slick and treacherous.

The slow-moving system followed nearly the same path as the storm that swept from Missouri to the Carolinas and the Virginias on Monday and early Tuesday, but it was weaker and was expected to dump only as much as four inches of new snow today.
