It’s winter weather awareness week in Iowa. National Weather Service Meteorologist Todd Heitkamp says you should keep listening to the radio when a winter weather warning is issued.

The National Weather Service has changed the way it calculates the wind-chill, something Heitkamp says will help forecasters better predict how cold it is outside.Heitkamp says those looking for a milder winter in Iowa this year should probably head south.He predicts there’ll be below normal temperatures this winter and normal precipitation.
