Winter Weather Alert Days: Sunday and Monday
A winter storm watch has been issued for eastern Nebraska and western Iowa from late Sunday night through Tuesday morning. Areas near the Lake Michigan shoreline will see a switch from a wintry mix to rain by late afternoon or evening.

We can expect a chance of showers Wednesday, followed by a chance of rain and snow showers Thursday.
The watch warns of sleet, freezing rain and snow. It will be moderate to heavy through the morning commute.
Strong north winds at 25 to 35 miles per hour were predicted, even up into Barton County, with gusts up to 45 miles per hour expected, which would reduce visibilities and cause blowing and drifting snow.
Travel will become hazardous or impossible.
Any change in the track of the storm could alter snow and ice totals, but it looks to be a significant event regardless of the exact path of the storm.
Snow also is possible before 8 a.m. Thursday, with a high near 31 degrees in the forecast that day, according to the National Weather Service. The low will be 46, close to the average high for the area.
Snow and sleet accumulations of 1 to 5 inches are possible for areas northeast of Council Grove, covering various counties in northeastern Kansas.

Ice accumulation from the freezing rain could reach a quarter of an inch.
