While much of Iowa got whalloped by last weekend’s snowstorm, she says there’s a remote possiblity more flakes will by flying soon.

Here in northwest Iowa, the forecast calls for a chance of snow developing late Wednesday night, with approximately 2-inches of new snow forecast for Thanksgiving Day.

Travelers should see mostly sunny and dry weather Friday and Saturday, while Sunday is forecast to be mostly cloudy, but dry.  A 40-percent chance of snow creeps back into the forecast for Sunday night, and continues into Monday.
