Special Weather Statement
Special Weather Statement National Weather Service La Crosse WI 556 AM CST Fri Feb 14 2025 IAZ008>011-018-019-029-030-142100- Mitchell-Howard-Winneshiek-Allamakee-Floyd-Chickasaw-Fayette- Clayton- Including the cities of Osage, Cresco, Decorah, Waukon, Charles City, New Hampton, Oelwein, and Elkader 556 AM CST Fri Feb 14 2025 ...Snow and Gusty Winds Could Cause Slick Spots Later Today... Strong and gusty winds are expected this afternoon in northeast Iowa, along with a burst of accumulating snow. Wind gusts up to 35 mph this afternoon, in combination with 1 to 5 inches of snow already on the ground depending on your location, are likely to cause some drifting, making roads slick. More snow is expected by late afternoon with about 1-2 inches falling by 6 pm. The combination of blowing and drifting snow, falling snow, and winds gusting to 35 mph is likely to make for a slippery and slower evening commute. If driving in northeast Iowa this afternoon, be alert for rapidly changing road conditions as drifting snow may cause local slick spots. The burst of snow should end by 7 pm and winds will also diminish through the evening. More snow is expected Saturday. $$ Baumgardt
