| Episode narrativeepisode_narrative | Snow and heavy snow blanketed much of East Central and Southeast Iowa, and West Central Illinois causing greatly reduced visibilities, slick roads and numerous accidents. Most areas had snowfall amounts from 3 to 6 inches. However, a band of heavier snow produced amounts in the 6 to 8 inch range from southeastern Iowa into western Illinois. The heavy wet snow was also a contributing factor in the death of a Rock Island, IL man who suffered a heart attack while shoveling. |
