WVIK, Quad Cities NPR | By Herb Trix
Published March 2, 2018 at 3:59 AM CST

today's headlines:

  • Jeanne Ives will campaign in the Quad Cities and Galesburg today,
  • the chances for flooding have gone up for the Mississippi River and its tributaries,
  • and Joe Taylor announces his retirement.

It should be another nice day - sunny with a high near 48.
