A WINTER STORM WATCH REMAINS IN EFFECT FROM MONDAY EVENING
THROUGH TUESDAY AFTERNOON.
FREEZING RAIN IS EXPECTED TO DEVELOP OVER THE AREA MONDAY NIGHT
AND CONTINUE THROUGH TUESDAY. SIGNIFICANT ICE ACCUMULATIONS OF
ONE QUARTER TO ONE HALF INCH ARE POSSIBLE WITH THE POTENTIAL FOR
SOME LOCATIONS TO SEE NEAR ONE INCH OF ICE. THIS STORM SYSTEM
WILL HAVE THE POTENTIAL TO PRODUCE SIGNIFICANT DAMAGE TO TREES
AND POWER LINES...AND MAKE TRAVEL EXTREMELY DIFFICULT. ONE FACTOR
THAT MAY MAKE THIS STORM WORSE IT THAT THERE IS ALREADY A SMALL
ICE ACCUMULATION ON MOST TREES IN THE WATCH AREA. THIS ICE
ACCUMULATION IS UNLIKELY TO MELT OR FALL OFF BEFORE THE
POTENTIALLY SIGNIFICANT ICE STORM BEGINS.
A WINTER STORM WATCH MEANS THERE IS A POTENTIAL FOR SIGNIFICANT
SNOW...SLEET ..AND/OR ICE ACCUMULATIONS THAT WOULD SERIOUSLY
IMPACT TRAVEL. MONITOR LATER FORECASTS FOR UPDATES.

A WINTER STORM WATCH REMAINS IN EFFECT FROM MONDAY EVENING
THROUGH TUESDAY AFTERNOON.
THERE IS THE POTENTIAL FOR A MIXTURE OF SLEET AND FREEZING RAIN
LATE MONDAY NIGHT AND TUESDAY WITH DANGEROUS AND DAMAGING ICE
ACCUMULATIONS. THERE IS STILL SOME UNCERTAINTY WITH THE EXACT
PLACEMENT OF THE HEAVIEST PRECIPITATION ASSOCIATED WITH THIS
LATEST SURGE OF MOISTURE RIDING OVER THE ARCTIC AIRMASS ACROSS THE
AREA. IT DOES APPEAR THAT THE FARTHER SOUTH ONE GOES IN CENTRAL
IOWA...THE GREATER THE CHANCE OF EXPERIENCING THE HEAVY ICE
ACCUMULATIONS. AROUND ONE INCH OF SLEET AND UP TO ONE HALF INCH
FREEZING RAIN ACCRUAL IS POSSIBLE OVER MUCH OF THE WATCH
AREA...WITH UP TO AN INCH POSSIBLE SOUTHEAST OF A LAMONI TO
OTTUMWA LINE.
A WINTER STORM WATCH MEANS THERE IS A POTENTIAL FOR SIGNIFICANT
SNOW...SLEET...OR ICE ACCUMULATIONS THAT MAY IMPACT TRAVEL.
