Spencer, IA (KICD)– It looks like Old Man Winter is taking aim at the area again as yet another complicated system slides its way into the region.

The biggest concern over our local area with this storm is going to be freezing rain potential which is why the National Weather Service has put all of Northwest Iowa and parts of Southwest Minnesota into an ICE STORM WARNING through Tuesday afternoon.

Some locations will have the potential to pick up between a quarter and half inch of ice followed by several inches of snow as we go into Wednesday morning.

It is going to be a different story just a short distance to the north and west where there is the potential for as much as a foot and a half of new snow in parts of South Dakoat and Western Minnesota.

Motorists are being advised to stay up to date on road conditions and to avoid travel if at all possible.
