'22-'23 Winter Storm #27

Posted: 17 Apr 2023 08:16 AM

Yikes! The week of high temperatures in the 80s has been replaced by accumulating snow over northern and northeastern Iowa. The featured map is an attempted analysis of available NWS and CoCoRaHS reports. These snowfalls are difficult to measure as much of the snow melted during the day on Sunday. Additionally, the lowest contour interval for this map is 0.1 inches, so all of the locations that reported a Trace of snowfall are not shown by this map. Anyway, far northeastern Iowa got a lot of snow and even higher amounts can be found off to the north and east in Wisconsin. Snow this time of year has very little chance to stick around and the warm soil temperatures from last week will further help to get rid of it. Unfortunately, there is some more cold in the forecast for the upcoming weekend.
