Major Spring snowstorm to bring heavy snow and high winds this weekend. Details here! Read More >

Overview

A spring low pressure system brought widespread rainfall to the region, which is already off to record or near record precipitation so far this year. Of equal significance with this event was the switch over to snow for some locations toward the end of the event. This provided the somewhat rare glimpse of May snowflakes and even accumulating snow to portions of the Buffalo Ridge area and other higher elevation locations.
