Good afternoon, gang. The blog is now in Winter Storm Threat mode for the increasing potential of 4″ or more of snow across parts of the region. If my confidence increases, then an upgrade to Alert will take place late today or tonight.<\/p>\n

Here’s a look at the early call on snowfall…<\/p>\n

\"Special\"<\/a><\/p>\n

We have an artic front diving in from the north and this will have a wave of low pressure developing along it. This wave looks stronger with each model run. With arctic air pouring in… snow ratios will be greater than the typical 10-1.<\/p>\n

Regardless of how much snow falls where you live, this will be a high impact travel event across our region. Snow develops late tonight and it’s likely to be snowing at a good clip during the morning rush hour. Wind gusts of 30mph will be likely during the day and this will create some blowing snow.<\/p>\n

Thermometers drop into the high single digits and low teens by early Tuesday evening. Readings may flirt with 0 or a tad below by Wednesday morning.<\/p>\n

Another arctic system dives in late Wednesday and early Thursday and may knock our temps down even more. This may also deliver another shot of light snow.<\/p>\n

Additional snow chances will be with us this weekend into early next week as arctic blasts continue to take aim at the state.This is a harsh period of winter upon us.<\/p>\n

Your friendly weatherdude is scheduled to be wheels up to Minneapolis later today for a business trip. As of now… that is still the plan, but could change.<\/p>\n

Take care.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
