The National Weather Service in Des Moines has issued a Dense Fog Advisory, which is in effect until 9 AM CST this morning. (And until 10-a.m. for the far west/s.w. counties)

Dense Fog Advisory until 9-a.m. (Counties in grey)

* VISIBILITY…less than 1/4 mile

* IMPACTS…Slick, frosty patches can be expected on roads, bridges and sidewalks due to fog deposits freezing on surfaces. This could create difficult driving conditions at times and will impact the morning commute. Slow down in the fog!

Nearly 500 flights have been cancelled on one of the busiest travel days of the year as a fast-moving winter storm bears down on much of the Midwest on the last day of the Thanksgiving holiday weekend. The flight-tracking website FlightAware reported that 491 flights headed to or from the U.S. had been cancelled as of 11 a.m. Sunday.

The site reported that the majority of the cancellations are flights that were supposed to be routed through Chicago or Kansas City — two areas forecast to be hit hard by the storm. The National Weather Service has issued a blizzard warning for parts of Nebraska, Kansas, Missouri and Iowa. Other parts of central plains and Great Lakes region are under a winter storm warning.

In total, the storm could dump a foot or more of snow in some places.
