And then the massive wind.

So will I end up in Missouri or Minnesota when I walk out side and get pushed on the ice?

 

[snowcraig2.0]

Looks like freezing rain will be far north.

 

[MNCYWX]

Wind will still be strong tonight, but the state of the snow pack just doesn't appear to be significant for a visibility drop. Will some of it blow around in north Iowa? I think it has the possibility to. Still looks like 50-60 mph from 1-6AM especially.

 

[Kinch]

Barometric pressure is really falling. Wouldn’t be surprised to see lightning tonight.

 

[SaraV]

Grrrrrrr.

 

[CychiatricWard]

Grrrrrrr.

How is it going to freezing rain when the high tomorrow is 25?

That’s actually how it works. You have cold, below-freezing temperatures at the surface, with warmer, above-freezing air aloft. The precipitation forms as rain (because it’s above freezing), falls through the colder air below, then freezes on below-32-degree surfaces.
