Across the Corn Belt, a snowstorm is underway in some areas west of the Mississippi River. Although the band of snow is narrow, some livestock stress and travel disruptions are occurring in southern South Dakota and northern Nebraska, where Friday’s accumulations could reach 5 to 10 inches. In contrast, warmth has edged into the southern Corn Belt, where high temperatures later Friday should range from 60 to 70°F.
On the Plains, a low-pressure system centered over western Kansas early Friday is producing a variety of weather.
