AFTERNOON/TONIGHT: This afternoon we will continue to see mostly sunny skies and mild temperatures. Tonight we will have clear skies and light winds. Lows will fall into the teens and single digits.
THURSDAY: On Thursday morning we will see some sunshine, but there will be increasing clouds in the afternoon. After 3pm we will start to see snow showers spreading in from the southwest. Snow will really ramp up in the Ports after 5pm. Moderate to heavy snow will continue overnight. Winds will be out of the east sustained 15-35mph with some gusts up to 45mph. This will lead to blizzard conditions up the North Shore and possible around the head of the lake as well. Snow totals overnight will add up to 5-10” for much of the region with less snow to our south. The North Shore could see 6-12”.
FRIDAY: On Friday morning there will be some lingering snow showers that will be diminishing from west to east through the morning. Skies will clear up a bit as well. Highs will be in the upper 20s and lower 30s with breezy northwest winds 10-20mph.
SATURDAY: Saturday is looking fairly quiet with partly sunny skies and a slight chance of flurries to the south late in the day. Highs will be in the upper 20s and lower 30s with southwest winds. The chance of snow Saturday night into Sunday has gone down with models keeping the heaviest snow across Southern Minnesota. We could still get hit by this system as things could change, so stay tuned for updates.
