...ACCUMULATING SNOWFALL EXPECTED LATE TONIGHT THROUGH TUESDAY MORNING... A BAND OF PRECIPITATION WILL MOVE INTO NORTHWEST IOWA THIS EVENING THEN TRACK SOUTHEAST ACROSS PORTIONS OF CENTRAL IOWA DURING THE PERIOD. THE NORTHERN EDGE OF THE PRECIPITATION WILL SWITCH TO SNOW WITH ACCUMULATIONS OF 1 TO 2 INCHES POSSIBLE ON GRASSY AREAS WITH LOCALLY HIGHER AMOUNTS. THE FOCUS FOR THE ACCUMULATING SNOW WILL BE ALONG A POCAHONTAS THROUGH FORT DODGE TO ELDORA AND TRAER LINE. ROAD TEMPERATURES ARE WARM ENOUGH TO MELT MUCH OF THE SNOW INITIALLY THOUGH SOME MINOR ACCUMULATIONS MAY OCCUR FOR A PERIOD CAUSING HAZARDOUS TRAVEL. SNOWFALL WITHIN THE HEAVIER BAND MAY ACCUMULATE ON TREES WITH LEAVES REMAINING. IF SNOWFALL BECOMES HEAVIER THAN EXPECTED...SOME TREE DAMAGE MAY OCCUR...INCLUDING FALLING TREE LIMBS. POWER OUTAGES ARE NOT ANTICIPATED BUT WOULD BE POSSIBLE IF SNOWFALL IN EXCESS OF 4 INCHES OCCURS.
