Growing up, snowy days like this cancelled school, but also made it difficult to drive to town as the country roads were blocked, typically for days. Overnight 6 1/2 inches of snow fell upon the Coralville / Iowa City area and school was closed. However this city doesn't come to a stop, but it does slow down. Local schools were cancelled, but people were out snow blowing and shovelling in order to get out of the house and get around town.
Many of the streets were covered with the overnight snow, but were very driveable. Now we look forward to highs below zero over the next 48 hours.
