Prolonged Winter Storm Late Tonight through Tuesday Afternoon |
|
An upper level low pressure system located over central Canada will merge and strengthen with a second upper level low ejecting out of the southern Rockies by Monday. This storm will provide a prolonged period of snow to much of Iowa tonight through Tuesday. Light snow will begin tonight...then expect the snowfall to intensify during the day Monday into Monday evening. A strong cold front will push across the region by Tuesday bringing brisk northwest winds. These winds will likely cause blowing and drifting snow and may reduce visibility significantly at times by Tuesday afternoon. The heaviest snowfall amounts will be located across central to northeast Iowa Monday and Monday night.
