Persistent flurries/light snow from the low stratus kept temps relatively mild overnight. Only made it down to 12F

Adding a few tenths on the latest train car of the endless clipper train this afternoon.

6am snow depth 10” Season to date MSP - 15.3”

4.1” at MSP Scattered snow showers and another clipper tonight.

MSP - 2.6” @ 6pm Measured 3.75” on my previously shoveled sidewalk at 7:15pm Back edge about to push through, should see wrap around snow overnight and add a bit more.

My house 1.3mi due north of the runway 12L threshold. Still all snow here

Kinda surprised the NWS hasn’t upgraded Hennepin County to a WSW. Roads are a mess and snow covered. Still 27 at the airport, I see some heavier returns moving in from the SW maybe that is the mixing line.

Been awhile since we’ve had a true Nowcast event like this.

Flakes flying in the SW metro. Maybe we stay all snow, latest hi res guidance really upping the snow total for MSP.

1.2” yesterday at MSP Messy day incoming for the metro. Lots of freezing drizzle, we probably pop above freezing for a few hours and miss the heavy snows by 30 miles or so.

Wasn’t expecting much this evening but that narrow band delivered. Picked up a quick inch at my house. No idea what to expect tomorrow. The hi-res models are way north, but none of them handled what happened today well. The EC-AIFS has been steadfast on nailing the metro for days and the other globals caved that way. It’s done well in this pattern so there’s that to consider too.

Classic GFS v Euro battle for the Tue/Wed system here. Either 4-6” of snow or 34 and rain.

Morning low of 1F. Couldn’t quite get below zero with the light snow and clouds lingering around into the overnight hours.

0.5” at MSP. Models nailed this one imby

DAB+ here, 0.2” as of 6pm. Covers up the dirty snow at least.
