The winter storm that was expected came. The snow started around 2pm in the afternoon. It was a light flurry, and was not constant. Later in the evening the snowfall increased heavily. With winds of 12 mph coming from the SW the snow was a mixture of rain and snow. It was a freezing rain and sounded hard on the windows. The snow is very moist and packs well. The temperature is about 29 F, so it is not to chilly out.
The Colorado lows that caused this storm, has moved into Iowa now. As the temperature risings from the warmer air mass moving in with the SW winds the snow will turn into more freezing rain. My predictions for tomorrow is more snow fall but not as gusty of winds as today. Total snow accumulation will be about 3-5 inches.
