Quad Cities Snow Update


Here's a quick update before lunch on Thursday...the latest model runs are suggesting anywhere from 2 inches of snow up to 10 inches of snow for the QC. While there is a big spread in the model output it looks most likely that the QC will see around 3-6" of snow, with heavier amounts falling slightly North/NE of the Quad Cities. Something to note with this storm, there will be a very sharp cutoff with the snow...some places south of the QC could see an inch or less, while places around Clinton, IA, could see 6-9"!

This should all begin Friday morning and wrap up by Friday late evening. On the bright side, winds should not be a big problem with this storm, as they'll be at a manageable 10-14 mph for most of the day!

As for today - if you haven't been outside yet brace yourself, it's very cold and blustery! The 11am temp is 9° with a wind chill of -7°!

Full details are coming up today on CBS4 News at 5 and 6!
