   SUMMARY...Freezing rain, sleet, and snow are all likely from eastern
   Iowa into southern Wisconsin this evening and tonight. Precipitation
   will diminish from southwest to northeast tonight/overnight.

   DISCUSSION...A strong upper-level trough is ejecting out over the
   Plains with an associated surface front oriented southwest-northeast
   from central Oklahoma through Lower Michigan. Winter mixed
   precipitation continues across northern Missouri, southern/eastern
   Iowa and into southern Wisconsin. As the surface low tracks/develops
   east-northeast across the southern Plains and into Mississippi
   Valley, the surface front will slide south/east across southeast
   Iowa, southern Wisconsin, and northwest Illinois. Along and behind
   the surface front, freezing rain/sleet are likely before
   transitioning to snow in a fairly narrow corridor.

   Strong isentropic ascent via warm air advection and low/mid-level
   frontogenesis will provide enough lifting for freezing rain rates to
   likely exceed 0.05 inches per 3 hours, and snowfall rates up to 1-2
   inches per hour across portions of this area. Sleet will also occur
   at the interface of the freezing rain/snow transition, which is
   already evident per dual-pol correlation coefficient values via KDMX
   and KDVN. Precipitation will continue through 06z, but will decrease
   from southwest to northeast across eastern Nebraska, northern
   Missouri, and southern/eastern Iowa.
