❄Heavy Snow Possible Thursday evening through Friday evening❄

…Accumulating Snowfall with Gusty Winds Thursday night through Friday…

A multi-faceted winter storm will pass through the state starting Thursday night and lasting through Friday. Snowfall amounts from 5 to 10 inches are expected over much of central Iowa along with winds gusting over 40 mph Friday. The combination of gusty winds, snow on the ground from the previous system, and new, fluffy snow falling Thursday night into Friday will lead to a significant blowing snow threat, with near- whiteout conditions and drifting snow possible. Therefore, hazardous travel conditions are expected through much of the state on Friday, including both the morning and evening commutes. Temperatures will also be in the single digits on Friday, with wind chills near and below zero, adding an extra layer of risk to travel on Friday.
