Lingering light snow continues through the day today with additional accumulations that could be enough for shovel and plow once again. This storm could bring a total of 8" to 10" (or more) through the end of the day Wednesday. Check the blog for more details. -Todd Nelson

Winter Storm & Ice Storm Warnings have been issued across parts of southern Minnesota, where plowable snow and significant icing will be possible through midweek. Check the blog for more details. -Todd Nelson

A classic Colorado low will push into Iowa Tuesday, pushing a deep layer of Gulf moisture into Minnesota. NOAAs models keep the heaviest snow band over central Minnesota while ECMWF predicts over a foot at MSP. Still too close to call, but you might want to have a Plan B on Tuesday. Serious slush!

After a chillier than average Monday, itll be a much warmer week with temps warming into the 30s during the 2nd half of the week. Readings will be nearly +10F above average through the weekend with chances of rain and snow across parts of the Midwest. Check the blog for more details. -Todd Nelson

Today will be all about accumulating snow, but winds will still be fairly light. Snow tapers tomorrow, and then a tightening pressure gradient turns on howling winds Thursday night into Saturday morning, reaching speeds of 35-55 mph. The greatest risk of blizzard conditions will be open areas south/west of MSP, but even the metro area may be drifted shut on Friday. With temperatures near 0F and winds gusting to 40, it will be challenging keeping metro freeways (and runways) clear from drifts. Ch...

Colder and somewhat snowy weather develops as we slide into next week. Subzero readings will be possible with the potential of another plowable event by Wednesday & Thursday. Check the blog for more details. -Todd Nelson

A stalled storm will pull waves of snow into Minnesota from Wisconsin today (odd, but it happens) and I could see 4-7" before snow tapers late Friday. Plowable for the metro and much of central Minnesota, but potentially crippling along Lake Superiors North Shore, where some 20-30" amounts may pile up. -Check the blog for more details.

A sloppy inch of slush is possible at MSP later today, but most of the main surge of moisture (coming PM hours today) will fall as rain or freezing rain. Glaze may build up on some bridge decks, with the worst icing over far southwest MN this morning. The heaviest snow may fall on the North Shore of Lake Superior with some 20"+ amounts from Duluth to Thunder Bay. The metro area will pick up accumulating snow on the cold backside of this system as the storm stalls over the Arrowhead later th...

The metro will be on the warm side of the storm, where a mix of rain, sleet and snow will be possible before transitioning to all snow later this week. The heaviest snows will be found north and west of the metro, where travel will be difficult. Buckle up, itll be an interesting week. Check the blog for more details. -Todd Nelson.

A snowy coating is possible today in the metro as another smear of light snow tracks north of MSP; a couple inches from Mille Lacs to Brainerd and Alexandria. A southern system may brush MSP with a little slush Friday, but most of the moisture stays south of town. Check the blog for more details. -Todd Nelson
