The snow and high winds led to numerous accidents, including multiple semis overturned or jackknifed on local interstates.
About 100 Ameren customers are still without power in the immediate Springfield area, but most City Water Light and Power customers have been restored.
Roads remain slick today, and the wind continues to be strong, so authorities are still urging you to be cautious while traveling.
