Weather forecast office sourcewfo_sourceOfficial NWS Observations
Episode narrativeepisode_narrativeBlizzard conditions developed over eastern Nebraska and adjacent portions of South Dakota and Iowa on Dec. 11 as an upper level low pressure developed rapidly over eastern Nebraska during the very early morning hours of that day. The upper low then dropped into south central Iowa causing surface low pressure to spin-up over northeast Nebraska and then track southeast across Iowa. Arctic air spilling in behind the system combined with the developing storm to produce the blizzard conditions as northwest winds of 30 to 40 mph with gusts over 50 mph were common over the area along with snowfall of 2 to 5 inches. Higher snow amounts were observed from southeast South Dakota into Minnesota and northern Iowa. However, the 2 to 5 inches of snow across much of eastern Nebraska and western Iowa, and the strong winds present, were enough to produce white-out conditions and to close some highways in northeast Nebraska. Heavier snow totals included 5 inches in Neligh and Bloomfield Nebraska and near Little Sioux Iowa, 4 inches at the NWS in Valley and 3 inches in Fremont Nebraska and Harlan Iowa. Temperatures which fell from the single digits to around zero or a little below late on the 11th and into the 12th combined with the strong winds to lower wind chill values to 20 below or a little colder, mainly in northeast Nebraska.
