Sun Returns as Snowbound Iowa Roads Begin to Clear
A bright sun helped clear major snow disruptions across Iowa after a heavy storm dumped up to 10 inches in places. Widespread accidents clogged highways 80 and 30, with at least one fatality in Tama county. Snowfall varied by region, leaving several counties with little or no snow while others faced road blockages and drifts. Continuous snowbound drives and lengthy delays were reported before the thaw began.
