A major ice storm swept through Iowa and eastern Nebraska over the weekend, leading to hazardous driving conditions and temporary closures of Interstate 80. The storm resulted in numerous cars and trucks sliding off the road, prompting officials to urge caution and advising people to stay home if possible.
Many events were canceled in the region as the storm hit on Friday evening, with businesses announcing delayed openings on Saturday. However, temperatures are expected to rise on Saturday afternoon, aiding in the melting of ice in most areas.
