snow generally from west to east as the atmosphere cools, becoming
all snow by Tuesday evening. Snow rates could exceed 0.5 inches per
hour at times leading to quick accumulations favoring central

visibility and blowing snow. The worst travel impacts are expected to
be across central Minnesota Tuesday evening into Wednesday morning.
