Snowfall amounts and probabilities Tues-Thurs

Colder Temperatures arriving Wednesday

A pre-Thanksgiving winter storm will bring rain and heavy snow to the Northland starting tonight. Rain will move into northwest Wisconsin tonight while rain and snow move into central and north-central Minnesota from the west early Tuesday morning. Precipitation will gradually transition to all snow Tuesday and Tuesday night as colder air pours into the region. Snow will be heavy at times Tuesday night and early Wednesday morning over portions of northeast Minnesota. Snowbelt areas of northwest Wisconsin may see 1 to 3 inch per hour snow rates Tuesday night and Wednesday. Snow tapers off from west to east Wednesday and Wednesday night. Thursday will see light lake-effect snow showers lingering over portions of northwest Wisconsin.

A Rain/Snow mixture begins on Tuesday, changing over to all snow by Tuesday night and continuing into Wednesday. South Shore lake-effect lingers into Thursday. Snow amounts are still likely to change, but most of the Northland should see accumulating snow. The highest snow amount probabilities are most favored for the Brainerd Lakes east-northeast into the tip of the Arrowhead and for the Wisconsin snowbelt portions of the South Shore.
