Heavy Snow and Disruptive Ice in the Upper Midwest; Severe Thunderstorms in the Southern Plains

A late season winter storm will produce a combination of heavy snow and disruptive ice starting this evening in the Northern Plains and moving into the Upper Midwest and Great Lakes by tonight continuing through Thursday.

The Winter Storm Watch has been upgraded to a Winter Storm WARNING for the Cascades of Linn, Lane, and Marion Counties. Snowfall totals will range from 10 inches to up to 18 inches with locally higher amounts along the peaks. Winds will also be gusty so there may be periods of reduced visibility. We haven't had too much snow so as a reminder: travel slow, give yourself ample time, & watch for slick roads. To find local road conditions, visit www.tripcheck.org or dial 5-1-1.
