Winter Storm (2/28 - 3/2)

Feb. 27 Update #1

Areas of the northern plains are already under various winter storm warnings/advisories and watches. The Dakotas/Minnesota have Winter Storm Warnings, Heavy Snow Warnings & Snow Advisories in effect already. As for Iowa, currently the northwest corner of the state has been put under a Snow Advisory as they are expecting anywhere from 3-6 inches of snow. Other portions of central and western Iowa have been put under a Winter Weather Watch, as the southern half of the watch may see 4-8 inches while north of I80 may see 6-12 inches of snow. In most areas they may also see rain/ice/sleet or any other type of mixed bag of precipitation before the snow...

Watch for these watches to be upgraded once the path and exact strength are better known. Once all of the advisories/warnings are issued I will post direct links, for now head to your local NWS office site for those texts. Also would like to point out that over half of the state of Iowa has been put under a Civil Emergency Message that was issued in joint effort by the governor, homeland security, etc.
