Likely won't see many issues as you will be in the warm part of the storm for 99% of the trip. Be aware for black ice though as there may be some freezing rain and slick roads.
I'd rather have snow at this point than any ice or rain.
Agreed. Think of how many drains are covered by snow right now...
It seems like a broken record but it is true with winter storms. Slight track changes can vastly change what happens and that is very true on this storm.
Also over the next week there will be several clipper systems coming through that will bring a small warm up before snow and bitter cold behind them.

Totals went up overnight with the freezing line shifting South.
Lots of area schools cancelling in the Ames area. Possibly up to 7" of snow here in Ames. Fast moving storm also and then the bottom of the thermometer starts to drop in the coming days.
I woke up today to nothing outside. Went outside a moment before getting taking off and freezing mist. Lovely.
Was fine in my neighborhood. 10 minute 3 mile drive to work and it was getting pretty slick.
Drove home from the Twins Cities yesterday evening....talk about white knuckle driving. Luckily, we beat the stuff falling from the sky, but the winds were so high it was white out conditions at times from the ground snow blowing around. Got better just north of Ames. Stay safe out there everyone!
Supposed to get 7-11 here with some freezing rain ahead of it. Could be interesting.
