Overview

An elongated area of low pressure tracked slowly east across the western Lake Superior region through Saturday and Saturday night, March 9th-10th. This system developed a band of snow north of the Iron Range Saturday morning and a secondary area of significant snow Saturday afternoon from the Brainerd Lakes area to Duluth into the Arrowhead. The heavy snow fell mainly across northeast Minnesota, while locations over northern Wisconsin remained warm enough for mostly rain.
