Weekend Storm #2 Totals

Most of the snow is working its' way out of the area, eastern as well as parts of northern Iowa may see some moderate snow before Noon still. Other parts of the states may see flurries for the most part, with not much more accumulation. Throughout the night the snow fell over the state, with very localized amounts being heaviest as banding of snow was once again the culprit for the high snow amounts. This is easily noticeable while looking at the latest COOP snowfall maps, streaks of 6-8 inch amounts next to some of the lighter amounts.

Expect temperatures in the mid 20s on average and lows anywhere from the single digits to mid-teens dependent on cloud cover overnight. Thus, the lower temperatures for lows seem to be forecast on Monday night as well as Wednesday night for the beginning of this week. The next system looks to come into the state on Tuesday night/Wednesday, but currently is not expected to be too strong. Winter has seemingly made its' way into the area finally and should stay for quite a while, at least the frigid arctic air is not in place at this time.

Here is the snowfall depth currently over hour, updated daily:
