Central States WEATHER: Ice Storm Warning For Southwest Half of Iowa



J
ust returning to normalcy from recent above-average snowfalls- the state of Iowa is under a NWS-issued "Ice Storm Warning" beginning early Wednesday morning.




The Ice Storm Warning includes areas generally along and southwest of a Sioux City- Des Moines- Ottumwa IA line.

Council Bluffs IA is included- but not Omaha across the Missouri River.

Traffic will be affected on north-south I-29 and I-35 as well as east-west I-80 in Iowa.


Prepare now for tree limb and electrical power losses in areas of heavy ice- as well as impassable roadways!
