Weather

A clipper system in the Canadian Prairies and Northern Plains is producing scattered showers. That is organizing into a band of moderate precipitation across Montana that will spread southeast through Iowa and into the Ohio Valley throughout the day. Though it will be a mix of rain, freezing rain, and snow across the Northern Plains, it should turn to all snow across the Midwest. In general, 3-6" of snow is forecast in the heaviest part of the band.
