Here's some additional reports from the NWS in the Quad Cities as of 11:30am.

The radar shows snow returns rapidly diminishing.

Warnings and advisories have been dropped for much of the area west of the Mississippi.

Behind the storm cold air and gusty winds will dominate into Tuesday. Here's current temperatures.

Wind chills are significant by mid-March standards.
