Big Snow is Here

Posted: 14 Jan 2022 05:41 AM

The snowfall event is underway with accumulations already reported over northern Iowa. The featured map presents the NWS forecast via the National Digital Forecast Database (NDFD) for the period ending Saturday night. The yellow and orange area paints a six to twelve inch stripe over much of the state. The snow to liquid ratio is expected to be low, which means the snow will be heavy to push around for clearing. You'll find a map like this in the upper right corner of the homepage during the event, summarizing reports that are received by the NWS. Snow lovers, rejoice!
