Light to moderate snow should continue to fall southeast of a line from around David City to Fremont and Harlan Iowa this evening. Roads will get slick as slush and snow accumulate. Remember...bridges and overpasses normally get icy first. Use a reduced speed and allow extra travel time. Snow amounts along a line from Lincoln to Omaha should be around 2 inches or less through late evening...but may be as high as 5 inches toward Falls City by the time the snow ends after midnight.

Warnings and Notices

	Winter Weather Advisory
Statement as of 3:50 PM CDT on March 19, 2010 ... Winter Weather Advisory in effect until 6 am CDT Saturday... The National Weather Service in Omaha/valley has issued a Winter Weather Advisory for snow... which is in effect until 6 am CDT Saturday. * Timing... band of light to moderate snow generally along the Interstate 80 corridor will continue through the rest of this evening... then quickly taper off around daybreak Saturday morning. * Snow accumulations... generally expect additional snowfall amounts around 3 to 5 inches. * Winds... stiff northwest winds gusting 20 to 30 mph are expected through tonight. * Impacts... the gusty winds and blowing snow will likely reduce visibilities to a mile or less... particularly over open areas. Precautionary/preparedness actions... A Winter Weather Advisory for snow means that periods of snow will cause primarily travel difficulties. Be prepared for snow covered roads and limited visibilities... and use caution while driving.
