Light Snow

Through today and Tuesday we will see light snow fall throughout the state, leaving parts of southern Iowa with a chance of 2-4 inches of snowfall through that time. Other parts of Iowa will mainly see under 2 inches of the white stuff as we work through the day tomorrow. With light winds and temperatures well below freezing, minimal problems with traveling are expected. Beyond this snowfall, Wednesday night may hold another dusting of snow for the state before we stay dry through the weekend.

Temperatures for the early half of this week will begin below normal, but work their way back up to near normal temperatures. Highs today will only reach the 10-15 degree mark as light snow and cloud cover exist. Tonight's lows won't drop too far thanks to this cloud cover as well, with single digits expected across the state. Tuesday will be a few degrees warmer, with temperatures in the mid-teens throughout; overnight lows once again in the single digits above zero. The skies should finally begin to clear for Wednesday, and with westerly winds will allow temperatures to range from near 20 along the Mississippi to near 30 along the Missouri. Wednesday night lows should remain in the teens...

Temperatures look to continue to rise right on through the weekend, the mid-week update will let you know just how much.
