URGENT - WINTER WEATHER MESSAGE
National Weather Service Des Moines IA
257 AM CST Mon Feb 10 2025

...TWO ROUNDS OF ACCUMULATING SNOWFALL THIS WEEK...

.The first round of snowfall will begin in northwest Iowa late this 
morning, then spread south and east through the afternoon and evening
hours. This will result in a dry, fluffy snowfall with 
accumulations of 2 to 4 inches possible in northwest and north 
central Iowa, then diminishing amounts farther south and east. 

Another winter system moves through the middle of this week, 
beginning
early Wednesday morning in southeastern Iowa and spreading north and 
east through the day before eventually departing in the evening. 
This will also produce a dry, fluffy snowfall with the greatest 
accumulations of 4 to 7 inches expected over southeastern Iowa, then 
diminishing accumulations farther north and west.

Both systems have the potential to produce slick and hazardous 
travel as snow collects on roadways.
