This Hazardous Weather Outlook is for portions of central and
southern Minnesota, and west central Wisconsin.
.DAY ONE...This Afternoon and Tonight.
A strong clipper system is bringing a variety of winter impacts to
much of Minnesota and Wisconsin through early tomorrow morning. Heavy
snowfall with rates exceeding 1 inch per hour will be possible
generally along and north of I-94. Snowfall totals here will range
from 4 to 7 inches by tomorrow morning. Snowfall amounts taper
off along and south of I-94, where 3 to 5 inches of snow is
expected along with wind gusts of 35 to 40 MPH. Here, freezing
rain and/or a rain-snow mix will cut down on snowfall totals and
likely lead to a sharp gradient in amounts, but little to no ice
accumulation is expected. Finally, across southwestern and
southern Minnesota, a wintry mix may produce around an inch of
snow, but very gusty winds approaching 55 MPH at times overnight
could lead to ground blizzard conditions. Snow will end from west
to east with winds subsiding by mid morning.
.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...Wednesday through Monday.
Chances for light snow will exist each day throughout the rest of
the week. Very cold temperatures are also expected Friday night
through Sunday morning with wind chill values likely surpassing
20 below zero at night.
.SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...
Spotters and snowfall observers are encouraged to report snowfall
amounts to the National Weather Service.
