...WINTER STORM BRINGING HEAVY WET SNOW AND STRONG WINDS TO
CONTINUE THROUGH TONIGHT AND INTO MONDAY...

.An impactful winter storm system will continue across Minnesota
and Wisconsin tonight and into Monday. Snowfall rates of 1 inch
per hour are likely, with 2 inches per hour possible, especially
along and north of I-94. Easterly winds of 15 to 20 mph with gusts
to around 30 mph will combine with the falling snow to produce low
visibility. Snow will become more widespread through this evening.
A Winter Storm Warning remains in effect for areas along and
north a line extending from New Ulm to Red Wing in Minnesota and
all of west-central Wisconsin. A Winter Weather Advisory remains
in place for Watonwan, Blue Earth, Waseca and Steele counties
through this evening.

Tonight, warmer air will cause snow to change over to rain across
southern Minnesota, and this warm air will expand eastward on
Monday. Areas in eastern Minnesota and western Wisconsin will
likely change over to rain. Areas in western Minnesota will
likely remain all snow. There is still some uncertainty on exactly
where the rain, snow line will set up.

On Monday night and Tuesday, colder air will move in causing a
changeover back to snow across much of the region from west to
east. A couple more inches of accumulation are possible, but the
main concern is for strong northwest winds of 30 to 40 mph to
cause blowing snow across western Minnesota. There is also a small
chance that some ice could mix in at times Monday night as
temperatures drop below freezing. The storm system will exit on
Tuesday.
