'19-'20 Winter Storm #17
Posted: 18 Jan 2020 08:25 AM
The active winter weather continued on Friday with a major winter storm bringing significant snowfall
and even some freezing rain to the state. Blizzard Warnings are in effect today as strong winds are
now blowing this snow around. Travel is not advised over much of northwestern Iowa. The featured
map presents a smoothed analysis of available NWS snowfall reports so far. The map will be
updated later today once more reports come in. The highest totals of six or more inches were
reported just west of the Des Moines metro area and over northwestern Iowa. Much colder air will
settle in for a few days behind this storm system, but above freezing temperatures are forecast later
next week.
