Winter Weather Advisory until 09:00PM 
...WINTER WEATHER ADVISORY FOR ACCUMULATING SNOW AND GUSTY WINDS ACROSS WEST CENTRAL MINNESOTA... .Rain has already begun to transition to snow across a significant portion of southern Minnesota, including along and south of the Minnesota River and into the western outskirts of the Twin Cities metro. As temperatures continue to fall, we expect rain to transition to snow, with a heavier narrow band of higher accumulations expected to move across the region this afternoon into the evening. Alongside the wet snow, strong winds are expected with gusts as high as 45-50mph, and although the wet snow should not blow around once it is on the ground, it will result in reduced visibility as it falls. Slick travel is expected due to slushy snow and gusty winds.
* WHAT...Snow. Additional snow accumulations up to 3 inches. Winds gusting as high as 55 mph.
* WHERE...Renville, Brown, Redwood, Chippewa, Lac Qui Parle, and Yellow Medicine Counties.
* WHEN...Until 9 PM CST this evening.
* IMPACTS...Plan on slippery road conditions. The hazardous conditions will impact the Wednesday morning and evening commutes. Strong winds could cause extensive damage to trees and power lines.
* AFFECTED AREAS: LAC QUI PARLE ... CHIPPEWA ... YELLOW MEDICINE ... RENVILLE ... REDWOOD ... BROWN
