The surface low located in the Ohio Valley continues to deepen as
it progresses toward the Great Lakes later this evening. For
today, heavy snow will continue to fall across the Upper Midwest
and Great Lakes today. Expect 3 to 5 inches of additional snow,
with locally higher amounts, across the Upper Midwest and Upper
Great Lakes. Some of these areas will also experience gusty winds,
creating blizzard conditions--particularly along eastern North and
South Dakota and western Minnesota/Iowa. Expect these conditions
to last through tonight. Blizzard conditions will also begin for
portions of the Upper Peninsula of Michigan this evening and
continue into Friday evening. Ice is expected along the transition
zone from rain to snow, with two to four tenths of an inch of
accumulated ice expected for areas from northeast Oklahoma into
southeast Iowa through this afternoon and evening. Additional
light ice accumulations can be expected in the southern portions
of the Upper Midwest and Upper Great Lakes near the transition
zone of rain and snow. Expect rainfall amounts of 1 to 2 inches,
with locally higher amounts, for the Ohio Valley today. 

The next storm summary will be issued by the Weather Prediction
Center at 900 PM CST. Please refer to your local National Weather
Service office for additional information on this event.
