Tracking Weekend Storm Impacts

A storm and trailing cold front will continue to slowly move through the Gulf Coast and Southeast U.S. through this weekend with widespread rain showers and isolated thunderstorms. A fast-moving clipper storm may bring several inches of snow to the north-central Plains, Midwest, eastern Great Lakes, and Northeast regions this weekend. Read More >

Light snow is expected for NW WI and flurries elsewhere tomorrow, with little in the way of accumulations. A series of clipper systems move through next week, one on Monday PM into Monday night and another, more potent system on Tuesday into Wednesday. Both of these systems will likely bring accumulating snow with potential travel impacts. Below normal temperatures stick around for most of the upcoming week, as well.
The light snow south of US-2 will end this evening. However, some light lake-effect snow persists into tonight for parts of the South Shore and downwind of larger inland lakes in northeast Minnesota. Expect additional accumulations of an inch or less for most locations, though the Hurley, WI, area could see an additional 1-2 inches.
Alberta Clipper systems late Monday into Monday night and Tuesday into Wednesday will likely bring accumulating snow and possibly travel impacts to the Northland. The second system looks to be the more impactful of the two. There are still some uncertainties with regards to the track of the clipper, which will affect timing and snowfall amounts. Stay tuned to future forecast updates as we hone in on these systems next week.
