A snow squall that passed through the central section of Iowa Monday morning, left anywhere from as little as one-tenth, to as much as nine inches of snow, catching motorists and others by surprise, and making for slippery, near white-out conditions. Here at KJAN in Atlantic, we picked up just one-tenth of an inch of snow that quickly melted.
