...Snow and Blowing Snow Today with Dangerous Wind Chills 
Tonight...

.Much of the mixed precipitation has transitioned to snow or will
very shortly with a burst of moderate, wind blown snow and low
visibilities moving across central and northern Iowa this morning
with near blizzard conditions.

Strong northwest winds will remain in place and even increase a
bit further later today causing blizzard conditions over northern
Iowa this afternoon into this evening, even after the snow has
ended or diminished. In the southeast, there is a potential for 
tree damage and power outages where significant ice accumulation 
occurred as the winds increase. Hazardous driving conditions are 
expected over much of the region today into this evening.

Another round of bitter cold wind chills arrives late today into
Friday morning. Wind Chill Advisories and Warnings will be needed
over much of central Iowa.

334 PM CST Thu Feb 7 2019

...Blowing Snow Continues into the Evening with Dangerous Wind 
Chills Overnight...

.No additional snow is anticipated but conditions should change
little into the evening with persistent strong winds producing
continued blowing and drifting snow and even blizzard conditions 
at times north. Visibilities will be significantly reduced at 
times, and even to a quarter mile or less in rural, open areas. 
Lingering snow and icing may linger over central and parts of 
southern Iowa as well producing hazardous driving conditions. 

The winds and blowing snow should diminish somewhat overnight, 
but still be sufficient to drive wind chills into the 20s and 30s
below zero by early Friday morning.

URGENT - WINTER WEATHER MESSAGE
National Weather Service Des Moines IA
1152 PM CST Thu Feb 7 2019

...Blowing Snow Lingering Over Northern Iowa...Dangerous Wind 
Chills Developing...

.Little if any additional snow is anticipated overnight, but 
persistent strong and gusty winds will continue to produce 
blowing and drifting snow over north central Iowa. Visibilities 
will be significantly reduced and under a mile at times, 
especially in rural areas. The strong winds will lessen some and 
blowing snow should diminish later tonight. However, the 
combination of the blustery conditions and very cold air will 
create hazardous to dangerous wind chills into the 20s and 30s 
below zero this morning.

Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Des Moines IA
1133 PM CST Wed Feb 6 2019

.SHORT TERM.../Tonight through Thursday/
Issued at 346 PM CST Wed Feb 6 2019

The weather will be quite changeable through the period with
multiple elements of active weather. Our earlier burst of elevated
instability producing dime to nickel hail in spots of central Iowa
has weakened, but is still sufficient for lingering weak convection
north. The H85 theta-e advection surge has recently blossomed
additional weak sleet and/or freezing rain showers over northern
Iowa with new lightning in spots as well. Farther south light
freezing drizzle continues to expand along and just ahead of the
weak KS/IA 925/850mb inverted trough. Pretty much expect persistent
with this into the evening as the latest RAP shows continued
saturation in that layer, but also with neutral to slightly
subsident vertical motion and weak winds through 03z. Thus the
current Winter Weather Advisory will remain in effect through the
evening and into Thursday for most locations (see below).

Our parent system is still well upstream, just moving through the
Rockies, but should begin advancing through the High Plains
overnight inducing yet another surge of warm/theta-e advection
overnight. Corresponding 1-3km QG forcing will deepen that moisture
eventually leading more toward freezing rain than freezing drizzle,
with increasing frontogenesis toward daybreak as well. Deep forcing
will be in place by 12z with a NW to SE changeover to snow in
progress. There is fairly high confidence in a wintry mix north and
icing south and east, including in the far southeast corner where
lower static stability and proximity to the low level baroclinic
zone may lead to higher QPF. Thus have added a small 12 hour Ice
Storm Warning for three counties in the SE corner where accums may
reach one to three tenths.

Farther north and west snow is expected, but its efficiency (snow
ratio) is somewhat uncertain as some models suggest spotty dendritic
layer moisture, potentially leading to sleet or marginal crystals
lowering amounts. There does seem to be a small three hour or so
window where the dendritic growth zone moisture and omega phase
however so still expecting three to five inch accumulations north.
This will also be coincident with increasing winds as the system
rapidly deepens moving from IL into the Great Lakes. Sustained
speeds should reach 25 to 35 mph with wind gusts 40 mph plus at
times. Thus blizzard potential comes into question. Have left Winter
Weather Advisory in place for this element for now as confidence in
snow type and wind gusts is marginal to go for a Blizzard Warning at
this lead time, but the potential will certainly be highlighted in
products and monitored further. With one to two inch accumulations
down into central Iowa during this windy period, have ended the
current advisory southward and extended until 00z.  Also of note
during the windy period Thu will be the potential tree and power
line impacts where significant icing has already occurred.

.LONG TERM.../Thursday night through Wednesday/
Issued at 346 PM CST Wed Feb 6 2019

Long term period begins Thursday evening with ongoing gusty winds
and potential for blowing snow. Strong subsidence should bring most
snowfall activity to an end, however with temp profiles falling
through the dgz cannot rule out a few flurries/light snow showers.
Did not add any mention of lingering -sn to the current forecast due
to low confidence. Models today are a little more aggressive with
the deepening surface low as it crosses the Great Lakes, now
dropping it below 990mb. Tight pressure gradient on the backside of
the low and persistent cold air advection maintains gusty northwest
winds over the state through at least the evening hours. Threat of
blowing snow transitions to another period of bitter cold wind
chills as low temperatures fall below zero Thursday night, with wind
chills dropping to between -20f to -40F. Wind chill headlines will
be needed to highlight the threat, but opted not to issue just yet
due to the complicated winter weather scenario in the short term.
Much lighter winds but continued cold for Friday into Friday night
as an impressive 1050mb high crosses the Upper Midwest. Highs on
Friday will struggle just to get into single digits up north and
teens south, then fall back below zero Friday night.

Upper level ridge axis pushes through the central conus Saturday,
setting up southwesterly flow aloft and lee side cyclogenesis in
southeast CO. Low-level southerly flow/warm air advection will help
temperatures rebound on Saturday. Models in fairly sound
agreement with pushing a weak shortwave through the central Plains
Saturday, however moisture is limited and likely fails to produce
any sensible precip. That story changes as another shortwave
trough quickly follows, this time with better moisture and strong
mid-upper level QG support for lift. Temperatures profiles cold
enough to generate light snow over much the area starting Saturday
night. Precip continues into Sunday before upper level support
gradually wanes.

Not much change to the weather pattern into next week as the wave
train stays active. Models continue to advertise a more robust
system ejecting from the central Rockies Monday into Tuesday. Euro
remains on the faster side of the guidance envelope than the
GFS/GEFS mean, but similar in intensity and track. Potential exists
for a decent shot of snow/blowing snow and impacts to travel over
the region, however it is too far out to start diving into any
specifics just yet.

.AVIATION.../For the 06Z TAFS through 06Z Thursday night/
Issued at 1132 PM CST Wed Feb 6 2019
