Areas affected...eastern Minnesota into far northwest Wisconsin

Concerning...Heavy snow=20

Valid 311549Z - 311845Z

SUMMARY...Heavy, wet snow may lead to continued snow accumulation
through early afternoon.

DISCUSSION...An area of moderate to heavy snow has developed within
a deformation band across south-central and eastern Minnesota this
morning. Temperatures are marginal with observed temperatures around
32F to 34F within the snow band and ground temperatures well above
freezing. However, webcams across south-central Minnesota show that
snowfall rates are heavy enough for accumulation. Continued
accumulation is expected where snowfall rates are the heaviest
through early afternoon. Precipitation rates will start to lessen by
mid-afternoon as the surface low starts to occlude. Thereafter,
while snow may continue to fall, more significant accumulation is
less likely due to the slower rates over warm ground temperatures.
