Snow showers with potential to reduce visibility under 1 mile
are the main concern in the immediate term and through this
afternoon. These snow showers are currently affecting an axis
around RGK to ONA and are sliding to the east-southeast. These
are expected to slip north of LSE and move over BCK and
potentially CMY. Moving ahead to the daytime and afternoon
hours, additional snow showers may develop but the area at risk
will slowly shift eastward as the day goes on and mainly be
confined to areas east of an EAU-82C line after 18z. Strong
west-northwesterly winds are also ongoing at issuance time with
gusts over 50 knots seen at RST/9MN/FKA. Core of strongest winds
will shift southeast and affect NE IA and far SW WI but areawide
gusts above 40 kts are expected. Winds will peak before 15z
before slowly decreasing through the day. As for ceilings,
widespread MVFR conditions will give way to VFR this afternoon
as cloud cover decreases and heights rise. Moving ahead beyond
the current period, widespread disruption with LIFR conditions
is increasingly probable to occur after 00z Sunday into perhaps
as late as 12z Monday due to heavy snow and blowing snow.
