Jasper County could see up to 5 inches of snow Monday

The National Weather Service is warning of widespread, accumulating snowfall Monday which may result in 3 to 5 inches of snow in Jasper County.

The winter weather advisory is in effect from 9 a.m. to 7 p.m. across central Iowa.

Snow is expected to 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, according to the NWS. While snow will begin to end later in the afternoon and early evening, this snow will have an impact on the Monday evening commute.

Plan on slippery road conditions, including during the evening commute on Monday. Be prepared for reduced visibilities at times.​
