AMES, IOWA (AP) -- Much of Iowa was under a wind-chill advisory on the heels of a winter storm that brought blizzard conditions to the upper Midwest.
The storm that started Saturday brought blinding snow and strong winds. The National Weather Service reports that more snow fell in the northern part of Iowa, with many places seeing 8-10 inches. Waukon reported up to 12 inches. Communities in the southern part of the state got 1-3 inches.
Most of Iowa was under a wind-chill advisory until Monday morning. The weather service's office in Des Moines was forecasting gusty winds that would make the temperature feel like 20-below in some places.
The storm forced the closure Saturday of portions of Interstates 29 and 80 in western Iowa. They reopened Sunday.
