The National Weather Service in Johnston reports “Confidence in amounts and location are still on the low side as of today, but it appears winter will hold on for several more days with moderate snows expected across southern Iowa Thursday into Thursday Night. Details on exact amounts are uncertain, but it appears moderate accumulations are possible, potentially in the 3-6 inch range toward the Missouri border. The good news is that winds will be light so blowing snow is not anticipated. The higher end of the potential range would occur mainly on grass and elevated surfaces, but higher snowfall rates could still lead to accumulations on roads and low visibilities presenting travel difficulties as well.”

Be sure to check the latest forecasts and road conditions over the next few days for updated information.
