...A QUICK HITTING BAND OF HEAVY SNOW TONIGHT WILL LEAD TO SLIPPERY TRAVEL CONDITIONS... .A band of snow develops across northeast Iowa into southwest Wisconsin this evening and lasts through the overnight, departing between sunrise and mid-morning. The snow will be heavy at times with rates exceeding 1" per hour, quickly leading to snow-covered and slippery roads. The heaviest snow is forecast to fall in a relatively narrow band with amounts quickly decreasing on either side of the band, making this snowfall forecast on the challenging side. Any small changes to the placement of the snow band could change forecast snow amounts at a given location very quickly. Confidence in heavy amounts is highest in far southwest Wisconsin and adjacent areas of northeast Iowa.
