    Areas affected...Northeastern Iowa

    Concerning...Heavy snow=20

    Valid 241628Z - 241830Z

    SUMMARY...Heavy snow with potential for 1" per hour rates and low
    visibility across northeastern Iowa over the next couple of hours.

    DISCUSSION...A convective band has been moving steadily northeast
    through central Iowa this morning. Temperatures near the band are
    hovering around to just below freezing. Lightning activity has begun
    to decrease in this band, with CAM guidance indicating the band
    should weaken with time as it moves northeastward. Even so, given
    the heavy nature of this band, temperatures will likely lower with
    wet-bulb cooling within the heaviest precipitation. Temperatures
    across northeastern Iowa are in the low 30s, with dew points in the
    mid 20s to lower 30s. Periods of heavy snow will be possible as a
    result, with rates approaching 1"/hr and low visibility (given
    surface winds around 20-25 mph).
