Winter Weather Advisory for Sioux Falls Area Thursday

The unpredictable wave of nice weather vs. snowy weather continues for southern South Dakota. A Winter Weather Advisory has been issued for southeast South Dakota and northwest Iowa tonight (Thursday, March 6) through Friday morning.

According to Dakota News Now, the Winter Weather Advisory could dump 2 - 5 inches of snow mainly to the south of Sioux Falls.

The best chances of snow lie along the I-90 corridor and to the south. The good news is that the strong winds we've been dealing with lately should be minimal.

As always, weather - especially this time of year - can and often does change in the blink of an eye. Keep aware of the alerts and adjust travel accordingly.
