Des Moines, IA – A powerful winter storm will sweep through Iowa this weekend, bringing accumulating snow, strong winds, and dangerous cold. Travel delays and icy roads are expected.
The National Weather Service reports snowfall could reach up to 2 inches by Saturday, with strong winds creating blowing snow. By Sunday, an Arctic blast will send temperatures plunging, with lows near -10°F and wind chills as cold as -30°F.
Roads may become slick, especially on highways and bridges. Officials urge drivers to slow down and check road conditions before heading out. The extreme cold could cause frostbite in minutes, so staying indoors is advised.
