The forecast calls for more snow tonight. National Weather Service Meteorologist, Kristy Carter, says it will spread across most of the state.

“It’ll be moving in tonight, for starters in northwest Iowa, but then it will move through the rest of central Iowa into most of Iowa even through the overnight hours, ending tomorrow night in southeast Iowa,” Cart says. She says there will be a band of heavier snow, and it will taper off from there. “Around the Highway 30 to Highway 20 corridors where two to four inches is probably going to be a little more common,” she says. “Elsewhere it’ll be one to two or less than that. If you are close to the band, maybe one to two for areas south and then to far north to northeast it’ll be less than one inch.”

Carter says we won’t have the blowing snow concern that we’ve had with other snowfall. She says the winds will pick up Friday night into Saturday, so they are not concerned about blowing snow. Things will cool off with the snow, but Carter says that won’t last long. She says there will be single digit wind chills Saturday, but the temperatures will move back into the 40s by Sunday. Carter says the snow will melt quickly as the temperatures increase.

(Radio Iowa) – The high temperatures in the upper 50s and 60s are about to go away. National Weather Service Meteorologist, Rod Donovan, says Thursday will be the last day. “We’re going to have highs across the state generally in the 50s to low 60s. So that again will be near to even above record highs across a good portion of the area,” Donovan says. He says the change will blow in by the weekend.

“We do have a cold front moving through and so we will be seeing those temperatures drop off by Friday and especially into the weekend where we’re going to see highs more into the 30s and 40s,” he says. We could see some more precipitation as well. “Can be some showers as mentioned even a few thunderstorms especially across eastern parts of the state as that moves across,” Donovan says. The forecast says we won’t see the 60s next week, but Donovan says temps will still be well above average.

“We’re going to be highs generally in the 40s. Average high temperatures fill this time of year still in the upper 20s across northern Iowa and so low to mid 30s elsewhere. So, even though we’re dropping off, we’re still looking at temperatures five even ten degrees above normal,” he says. Donovan says most of the snow has melted away and that helps things stay warmer during the day.
