After setting record high temperatures late last week, the return to winter over the weekend was abrupt with significant snow falling from Omaha to Dubuque. The featured map presents an analysis of available NWS and CoCoRaHS reports with the highest totals found just near Des Moines and south of Dubuque. Temperatures were not too cold, which made for a liquid rich snowfall, but one that also was able to melt off of cleared roadways on Saturday. This now looks to stick around for most of the week with warmer temperatures expected by the upcoming weekend. Rewording, this snowfall would not appear likely to survive until Christmas.
