Takeaways:

• Snowfall overnight has led to snow and ice-covered roads in northwest and central Iowa, with temperatures in the 20s causing melted snow to refreeze.

• Morning commutes may be hazardous due to icy conditions and wind chills in the teens.

• Snow is expected to taper off in the morning, with clouds decreasing in the afternoon and highs struggling to reach the low 30s.

• The weekend will bring cold temperatures with lows in the mid-teens and wind chills near zero, but it will warm up with highs in the 40s on Sunday and 50s on Presidents Day Monday.

• The weather is expected to calm down with more sun and above-average temperatures returning next week, potentially reaching near 60 degrees by Wednesday.
