...ACCUMULATING SNOW AND VERY GUSTY WINDS EXPECTED THROUGH EARLY
WEDNESDAY MORNING...

.A strong clipper system is bringing a variety of winter impacts to
much of Minnesota and Wisconsin through early Wednesday morning.
Heavy snowfall with rates exceeding 1 inch per hour will be possible
generally east of Interstate 35. Total snowfall amounts near and
north of Interstate 94 will range 5-8 inches.

Snowfall amounts taper off along and south of Interstate 94, where 3
to 5 inches of snow is expected along with wind gusts of 35 to 40
MPH. Some patchy freezing drizzle is possible at times over
central-southern Minnesota, 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.

A break in the precipitation will occur late this evening followed by
another round of light snow during the early morning hours, with
little additional accumulation. Winds will diminish through the day
Wednesday.
