Ice Storm Causes Northeastern Iowa School Delays (Feb. 23, 2023)
We will continue to keep you updated as more schools begin to announce their plan for this winter weather system. Download our app for the most up to the minute weather coverage.
The ice storm that has been moving through much of the Midwest has not been too forgiving.
Dangerous road conditions caused by the winter weather have made it difficult for many to travel.
Reports from our First Alert Weather Partners at KCRG showed signs of a very rough commute for many parts of our listenership yesterday and into today. Now, this latest system will be continuing to move east.
This brings with it some strong wind gusts. Iowans are no strangers to wind, but the icy roads along with the gusts of up to 30 MPH will make travel dicey.
With the ice from yesterdays storm, some roads will be difficult to navigate. Slick conditions are expected especially when the temperatures drop this evening. Our weather partner believes the low will be anywhere between 0-10 degrees.
Overall, not a great day for travel.
Here are the school closings and delays for Northeastern Iowa. If there is a school that we missed, please make sure to shoot us a message on the station app. We will quickly make that edit.
