Des Moines, IA – The National Weather Service in Des Moines will place the northern counties within our listening area under a Winter Weather Advisory in effect from 9:00 a.m. CST tomorrow to 9:00 p.m. CST. The counties included in the advisory are Kossuth, Winnebago, Palo Alto and Emmet.
Total snow accumulations in the northern counties are expected to be 2-4 inches with winds gusting as high as 35 mph, which may cause blowing snow.
The NWS says those in our northern counties should plan on slippery road conditions. The hazardous conditions could impact the morning or evening commute in these areas and visibilities may be reduced in blowing snow.
