FROM TORNADOES TO SNOW....

The National Weather Service is continuing to survey the deadly tornadoes from Saturday afternoon and evening. Six people were killed in the Winterset tornado and another in a different tornado in Chariton. The NWS has confirmed at least six tornadoes -- an EF-0 and EF-1 both near Davenport, EF-1 near Vinton, EF-2 and EF-3 in south central Iowa and the Winterset tornado -- they're still working out the details on that storm, which was a long track tornado. NWS Des Moines says that tornado is at least an EF-3.

Now... around 30 hours later snow will fall in the state. Winter Weather Advisories have bee posted across much of Iowa and NW Illinois:

Here's the latest forecast from the National Weather Service:

Snow will fall through Monday around midday and lead to a slick morning commute, with most of the snow falling Sunday night. Here's the latest from the Euro:

Temperatures will generally be staying cool through the middle of the month:

In that time we'll be watching another shot of snow somewhere in the Midwest on Thursday.. too soon to say where the exact track of this one will be. But winter isn't done with us yet!
