...ACCUMULATING SNOW EXPECTED OVERNIGHT...
.A quick moving but complex winter system will impact the area
beginning this evening through Sunday morning. A band of snow
will set up from southwestern Minnesota up through northwest
Wisconsin as a surface low deepens across Iowa. Snowfall totals
generally look to be in the 2 to 4 inch range with amounts quickly
tapering off on either side of the band. A narrow corridor of
of 5 to 7 inches with isolated higher amounts appears most likely
from near Sioux Falls to Mankato. Southern Minnesota may see more
of a wintry mix at times, but little to no ice accumulation is
expected. Precipitation will come to an end Sunday morning.
