Occasional rates 1"/hr with heavier bands. DISCUSSION...Recent radar and surface observations suggest moderate to heavy snow continues across portions of central Iowa. This is occurring near the surface low and in the region of strong DPVA aloft overspreading central Iowa. Two regions that will favor heavy snow (possible 1"/hr rates) over the next couple of hours are near the zone of 700-850 mb frontogenesis across central Iowa north of Des Moines and in a smaller mesoscale sector along and south of I-80 and trending eastward of I-35 where a more narrow band of heavy snow has developed. Guidance indicates a gradual downward trend in snowfall rates is expected through the late evening/early morning Sunday. However, periods of locally moderate snow may continue at times across northeastern Iowa into southern Wisconsin/northern Illinois. ...Thornton.. 12/07/2025 ....Please see https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://www.spc.noaa.gov__;!!DZ3fj= g!8uw8459RkxtyptCa8LH2ZFsJxj9jVGDllzBaLTmPWQ40s5Xo08w-CqF6Lv3SVZ0N7z1cs4JHI= HACtI3Z6RqEhPqIVCE$ for graphic product...
