The featured chart shows the time evolution of the GFS weather model forecast for precipitation for Burlington. The model runs made last week for today had no precipitation for Burlington, but the last three days worth of runs have advertised a significant snowfall event with totals over a foot expected. This is a part of one of the most hyped winter storms over the plains in recent memories. Blizzard warnings are posted for this afternoon as winds will be picking up and blowing whatever does fall around creating a huge mess. Iowa should miss out on the major ice accumulations expected to fall over Missouri and Illinois.
