Winter Weather Advisory


... Winter Weather Advisory remains in effect until 6 PM CST
Monday...

* timing... snow will continue to move in from the southwest
overnight... and continue through much of Monday. Also... areas
of freezing drizzle will be possible mainly along and south of
Interstate 80 through the morning.

* Snow amounts... much of eastern Nebraska and southwest Iowa
will see up to 2 inches of snow... with higher totals of 3 or 4
inches expected from near Albion to Norfolk... Wayne and Pender.
The heaviest snow will likely be falling during the morning
commute.

* Impacts... the combination of 1 to 4 inches of snow along with
areas of freezing drizzle will make for dangerous travel
conditions... especially during the morning commute when the
heaviest snow is expected. Slick roads and sidewalks along with
reduced visibilities can be expected. Motorists should allow
plenty of extra time to reach morning destinations.

Precautionary/preparedness actions...

This Winter Weather Advisory means that periods of snow and
freezing drizzle will cause travel difficulties. Be prepared for
slippery roads and limited visibilities... and use caution while
driving.
