'21-'22 Winter Storm #2

Posted: 29 Dec 2021 06:39 AM

After the tornadoes and thunderstorms of 15 December, we are now back to full blown winter with activity really picking up this week. The second analyzed winter storm is presented by the featured map with snowfall reports over four inches found over far eastern Iowa. The western gradient for this snowfall appears to have been very tight with significant freezing rain and sleet accumulations found there. The IEM produces these analyses and assigns a sequential number over the winter season. They summarize available NWS Local Storm Reports (LSRs), COOP, and CoCoRaHS reports. The event generally needs to produce at least a few two inch snowfall totals or significant freezing rain totals or have significant travel impacts to be counted. You can find previous storms by clicking on the tag "winter2122" for this event or the "Winter Storms" listing underneath the most popular heading on the homepage.
