As snow intensified Sunday morning in Dorchester and much of southeast Nebraska, road conditions quickly deteriorated, as well.
The highways surrounding Dorchester resembled 7-11 Slurpees much of the day.
Saline County was among the counties that caught the heaviest of the Easter snowfall. Crete had around seven inches, according to reports, as did Wilber. One report says Tobias had over nine inches.
Thayer County received around a foot of snow in areas, according to local news media.
Meanwhile, Shickley had over eight inches of snow, and similar totals were found throughout Gage, southern Lancaster, Saline and Fillmore counties.
By 2 p.m., the snow had ended as temperatures rose and melting started. However, temperatures stayed under the 32-degree mark most of the day, so plenty of the white stuff remains on the ground.
Despite a cold night tonight, melting will resume Monday with temperatures expected to climb to almost 50.
But flurries and sleet may return by Friday and Saturday, April 6 and 7, according to AccuWeather.
