Heaviest snow will fall from 6pm-midnight. Plan for hazardous travel this evening and check road conditions before heading out! #iawx

Moderate to heavy snow will spread across northern and central IA this afternoon and tonight. Northern IA will see the heaviest snow, though the band may still shift slightly.

Snow is covering all of Iowa today and making road conditions less than ideal. If you must travel, do so with extreme caution. If you can hold off a day or so, that's an even better idea.
