We received our first full dose of winter weather on Saturday (1/1), as heavy snowfall covered most of Iowa. According to the National Weather Service, Oskaloosa received six and a half inches of snow.  Pella had the most snowfall with eight inches; 6.8 inches reported in Ottumwa, six inches near Sigourney, and five and a half inches of new snow fell in both Knoxville and Albia.  Main roads have been plowed and are in seasonal driving condition.  Be cautious on side streets.
