Accumulations of a tenth to a third of an inch of ice are expected due to persistent freezing rain on Saturday. Conditions will improve from south to north as the day goes on.<\/p>\n<h2>BOTTOM LINE: If you don&#8217;t have to travel, stay home. If you must drive, take it slow, stick to main roads, and take an emergency kit with you.<\/h2>\n<p>As of Saturday morning, ice is starting to coat&#8230; well, pretty much everything across eastern Iowa. Any untreated streets and sidewalks are covered in ice due to freezing rain and sleet.<\/p>\n<h2>SATURDAY MORNING<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>Freezing rain\/sleet will continue to spread north<\/li>\n<li>Any untreated roads will be very difficult, if not impossible, to navigate<\/li>\n<li>Gusty winds may lead to sporadic power outages, tree damage due to ice buildup<\/li>\n<li>Temperatures will start to warm above freezing south of I-80 in mid-morning hours<\/li>\n<li>Conditions begin to improve south of I-80 between 10 am to noon<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>SATURDAY MIDDAY<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>Changeover to rain begins near Highway 30 between noon to 2 pm<\/li>\n<li>Road conditions gradually improve as temperatures rise above freezing<\/li>\n<li>Moderate freezing rain continues to the north<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>SATURDAY EVENING<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>Changeover to rain begins near Highway 20 between 3 to 5 pm<\/li>\n<li>Road conditions gradually improve as temperatures rise above freezing<\/li>\n<li>Freezing rain persists in far north until 10 pm to midnight<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Ice will build up on anything below freezing: untreated roads, sidewalks, cars, windows, mailboxes, signs, etc. Be mindful when walking outside and take it slow &#8211; walk like a penguin! Watch for any falling ice once melting begins as well.<\/p>\n<p>Thankfully, Sunday will be quiet and temperatures will be above freezing in the afternoon. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-3711241968723425\"\r\n     crossorigin=\"anonymous\"><\/script>\r\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\"\r\n     style=\"display:block\"\r\n     data-ad-format=\"fluid\"\r\n     data-ad-layout-key=\"-fb+5w+4e-db+86\"\r\n     data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-3711241968723425\"\r\n     data-ad-slot=\"7910942971\"><\/ins>\r\n<script>\r\n     (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\r\n<\/script><br \/>\n<br \/><div data-type=\"_mgwidget\" data-widget-id=\"1660802\">\r\n<\/div>\r\n<script>(function(w,q){w[q]=w[q]||[];w[q].push([\"_mgc.load\"])})(window,\"_mgq\");\r\n<\/script>\r\n<br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/cbs2iowa.com\/news\/local\/ice-storm-warning-freezing-rain-will-lead-to-difficult-travel-saturday-in-eastern-iowa\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>CEDAR RAPIDS, Iowa (Iowa&#8217;s News Now) \u2014 Ice Storm Warnings have been expanded across most of eastern Iowa.
