…Widespread, accumulating snowfall on Monday over Iowa…

Snow will begin to spread into northwest Iowa shortly after sunrise and reach the I-35 corridor over northern and central Iowa around mid-morning and the remainder of central Iowa by midday. Snow covered roadways will create hazardous travel and
visibilities may be reduced at times due moderate to briefly heavy snow. While snow will begin to end later in the afternoon and early evening, this snow will have an impact on the Monday evening commute. Snow accumulations of 3 to 5 inches will be common with locally higher amounts. Less snow accumulations of 1 to 3 inches
are expected over parts of south central Iowa and near the Minnesota border.
