Heavy Snow from the Midwest into the Great Lakes; Locally Heavy Rain in the Western Gulf Coast

A significant winter storm will produce a broad area of moderate to heavy snow from the Midwest through the western Great Lakes. Significant snow accumulations of 6-12 inches, and locally more than 1 foot, and gusty wind may cause hazardous travel conditions. Thunderstorms, some severe, and showers may produce locally heavy rain and isolated flash flooding along the western Gulf Coast. Read More >

The radar display, located at the bottom right of our main web page (listed as Local Radar), may not load any radar data on the initial display. A temporary workaround is to 1) select the Super Resolution Base Reflectivity product from the drop down menu, and then the data will load properly, (example shown below), or 2) select another surrounding radar by scrolling on the map and using your mouse to click on another radar site (such as Des Moines or Hastings, etc.), then after the data loads for the other site, use your mouse to select our radar site again. Either option should then load the radar data as expected. Thank you for your patience while a permanent fix is worked on by our support team.
