Indianola Peeps: weather update for Thursday

Thursday- cloudy with a chance of snow in the morning before noon (1200) then in the afternoon we could see a mix of freezing rain/snow before 5pm (1700). From 5-7p (1700-1900) we could see a transition it light snow. Overall I see getting around half to three quarters of an inch of snow and possibly a tenth of an inch of ice. If that happens the roads will be really slick during commute. SE winds of 5-10 mph. High of 30 and low of 21.

Stay tuned tomorrow morning for an update.

Indianola Peeps: weather update for Friday into Saturday. I am really confident on timing and becoming more confident on the amount of snow.

Happy Thanksgiving! I’m truly grateful for each of you who takes the time to read my weather reports and share your thoughts. I read every single comment, and they mean a lot to me. I feel very fortunate to be able to turn my passion into something that helps others, and I’m thankful for the chance to share it with you.

Friday
1) Partly cloudy with increasing clouds throughout the day. Snow will move into the area between 10p-12a (2200-0000). First round of snow will be lighter then increase after midnight.

2) Winds be calm in the morning then becoming 5-8 mph out of the SE in the afternoon. As the snow moves in the they will increase.

3) High of 34 and low of 19.

Saturday
1) Snow will increase in intensity after midnight (0000) and will continue to snow throughout the rest of the day. There will be fluctuations in rate of snow as the day goes on. Snow is looking to end before midnight (0000). The rate will drop down significantly around 9p (2100). Good time for plows to get out.

2) Here is what everyone is waiting to know: how much snow will we get? Looking at all the models up to now, I believe we will have anywhere between 7-9 inches.

Indianola Peeps: weather update for this weekend.

Having been asked about when is a good time to travel, I am giving an update. I am getting more confident in timing but it could vary slightly.

Friday
1) Timing for snow arrival around the metro will be between 5-7pm (1700-1900).

2) Will come in from the Northwest and slowly move in a Southeasterly direction.

3) SE winds of 5-10 mph.

4) High of 32 and low of 27.

Saturday
1) Snow will continue throughout the rest of the day and ending in the earling evening hours.

2) As of right now we are on the border of heavy to moderate amount of snow. I am leaning towards the heavier side. I am predicting 5-7 inches as of right now. I am 50/50 on this right now. I am confident we will have atleast over 4 inches.

3) NW winds of 15-25 mph.

4) High of 35 and low of 15.

Travel is best before evening on Friday and late Sunday. I would not advise travel on Saturday.

Indianola Peeps: weather for the week of 24-30 NOV 2025

Before anyone asks its too early to be definitive on timing, amount, and the areas effected by the coming snow storm next weekend. Stay tuned through the week as I give you updates.
