Des Moines, IA – A winter weather system is expected to bring freezing drizzle and rain to Iowa on Wednesday, leading to hazardous road conditions and travel disruptions.

According to the National Weather Service in Des Moines, the storm could create slick and icy roads, particularly on untreated surfaces, making travel dangerous throughout the day and into the evening. While the extent of the icing remains uncertain, forecasts indicate the potential for freezing rain across much of the state, with northern Iowa possibly seeing light snow.

Officials urge residents to stay updated on weather alerts and prepare for icy roads. Travelers are advised to exercise caution, as even a thin layer of ice can cause treacherous conditions. Commuters should allow extra time for travel and consider delaying trips if conditions worsen.

Temperatures are expected to remain cold, prolonging the risk of ice accumulation. The National Weather Service recommends monitoring forecasts closely and being prepared for changing conditions.

Stay tuned for further updates as this winter weather system develops.
