According to the National Weather Service, Greene and Dallas counties will be under a winter storm warning from 9am today to 6pm Saturday. Guthrie County is currently under a winter weather advisory through 6pm Saturday. All three counties are expected to get between four and six inches of snowfall, with the majority to happen early to mid-morning today.

During the early morning hours of Saturday, winds could gust as high as 52-miles-per-hour in the listening area. The strong winds could cause white out conditions and areas of blowing and drifting snow. Officials urge motorists to slow down and drive to the conditions of the road.
