A major snowstorm has been tracking south of original predictions and likely will miss most of Nebraska and much of Iowa.

Rick Chermok of the National Weather Service says 2 to 3 inches of snow is expected to start falling in southeast Nebraska on Monday night.

The same storm is expected to enter south-central Iowa early Tuesday morning and leave behind 4-8 inches of snow as it courses northeast.

Wind gusts to 35 mph in some areas could make travel hazardous.
