looking i-70 and i-80, blizzard conditions, winds topping 40-50 miles an hour. that means big time travel shutdowns. this will streak north and east and not hammer the northeast but see heavy snow in the upper midwest. from omaha to minneapolis and this will be a multifaceted snow. snow on the western flanks and net for a few tornadoes along interstate 35 in oklahoma city to dallas. torrential downpours and travel delays, as well. as we move into sunday, it jets off to the north and east. rain into chicago but heavy snow northbound into minnesota, wisconsin and back through the north and west around des moines iowa where we could pick up 6-10 inches. gregg: thanks very much.
