Confidence continues to increase in the potential for a band of 3 to 6 inches of snow across central Minnesota through western Wisconsin, generally near and north of the Interstate 94 corridor, Wednesday night through much of Thursday. Northern and eastern portions of the Twin Cities metro could potentially be included within such a band of plowable snow. There is still some uncertainty in exactly where and how wide this band of snow develops. Hazardous travel conditions may develop as a result of the accumulating snow, particularly for the Thursday morning commute, during which the steadiest snow may fall. In addition, breezy winds on Thursday with gusts of 20 to 30 mph for much of the day may produce blowing snow which could reduce visibilities. Drivers should prepare for a slower and longer commute Thursday morning and keep up with the latest forecasts and statements from the National Weather Service.
