Many people will be traveling in Iowa for Thanksgiving but need to be aware that snow is coming. Snow is in the forecast for the day before Thanksgiving and on the holiday.

This technique is often referred to as the Quarter Freezer, an oldie but goodie that has saved many a fridge-full of food from spoilage after storms or heavy snowfall.
