...POTENTIAL FOR HEAVY, ACCUMULATING SNOW AND VERY GUSTY WINDS FROM
CENTRAL MINNESOTA TO WESTERN WISCONSIN TUESDAY AFTERNOON THROUGH
TUESDAY NIGHT...
.A strong clipper system is forecast to bring accumulating,
potentially heavy, snow to portions central and eastern Minnesota and
western Wisconsin Tuesday through Tuesday night. Snow is expected to
start in central Minnesota early Tuesday afternoon and spread
southeast into western Wisconsin by Tuesday evening.
Currently, the most likely place for heaviest snow is along and north
of Interstate 94 where a narrow band of 4 to 7 inches of snow is
possible. Along and south of I-94, a wintry mix is possible at times,
which will lower snowfall amounts.
Winds will also become strong with gusts of 30 to 40 mph possible.
The strongest winds will be across western and southern Minnesota.
Depending on if rain falls, and how the snow pack settles, blowing
snow and blizzard conditions could be possible. Snow will end from
west to east during the morning hours of Wednesday.
