LINCOLN, Neb. (KOLN) - A Weather Alert Day is in effect from Monday night into Tuesday morning as areas of freezing rain across eastern Nebraska will likely lead to icy and slick conditions overnight and into Tuesday morning. Ice accumulations could also damage trees and powerlines leading to power outages.

Ice Storm Warnings have been issued for parts of central and into eastern Nebraska through early Tuesday afternoon. These areas could see some significant ice accumulations of 0.20″ to 0.50″.

Winter Weather Advisories have been posted across a good portion of the state through Tuesday afternoon. For Lincoln and Lancaster County, the advisory is in place until 3 PM on Tuesday. Ice accumulations of 0.10″ to 0.25″ are possible in Lincoln as well as a trace to 1″ of snow on top of that. Untreated roads, bridges, overpasses, side walks, and parking lots are all expected to be very slick. If you’re heading out the door Tuesday morning, make sure to give yourself plenty of time and drive carefully.

Heavier snowfall accumulations are expected from northeastern Nebraska back towards southwestern Nebraska where a band of 2″ to 5″ of snow is possible.

If rain, snow, and freezing rain aren’t enough, temperatures will give us another dose of reality as it will be much more November like the next few days as opposed to the last week when temperatures were in the 70s to low 80s. Low temperatures on Tuesday morning will likely bottom out in the teens, 20s, to low 30s across the state.

Temperatures on Tuesday then will rebound a bit for western Nebraska where mostly sunny skies are expected for most of the day. Colder temperatures are expected for Lincoln and eastern Nebraska as we’ll be dealing with a lingering wintry mix through Tuesday morning before skies clear in the afternoon.
