The combination of falling snow and gusty winds will result in blizzard condition especially in the areas with the highest accumulations. This will result in difficult to hazardous travel conditions throughout the day.
As our wintry mix continues to transition to light snow this morning, expect any accumulating snowfall to gradually taper off from west to east by the early afternoon.
Should see the wintry mix of snow and sleet gradually dissipate from west to east heading into the afternoon. Otherwise, quieter conditions will briefly return to start the week before another system brings more precipitation chances by the midweek.
Northwesterly winds will continue to strengthen this morning with wind gusts between 40-60 mph expected. Falling snow along with stronger winds will promote blizzard conditions mostly along the SD/MN border and portion of southwestern MN. However, should see winds gradually decrease by this evening.
