...AREAS OF BLOWING AND DRIFTING SNOW THIS AFTERNOON...
There will be sustained southwest winds of 20 to 25 mph with
gusts up to 40 to 50 mph between Watertown and Sisseton this
afternoon. These winds will be focused along the eastern side of
the Prairie Coteau. This is causing mainly drifting snow, but in
areas prone to blowing snow, the snow may be lofted and briefly
reduce visibilities. Slow down and place extra distance between
your vehicle and any vehicles in front of you if traveling this
afternoon.
