  1. The air is thick with anticipation and moisture.
  2. Trends are definitely in our favor, however I still think there is a brutal cutoff right over the metro. I might get double your totals at the airport versus north burbs. Always love waking up to the pleasant surprise of a WSW and a blizzard warning one county south.
  3. Wednesday looks to be fun around here. Yet another crazy gradient across the metro but I’ll go with 2.8” at MSP. Good thing my ski hill is just outside Red Wing MN. That area has been consistently shown to be the jackpot zone in Minnesota and could pickup 5-7”
  4. Winter storm watches hoisted to my southeast. Pretty big spread across the metro. 2” on the west end to 6”+ on the east side. Classic spring slop storm.
  5. Anyone live closer to a first order station then me?
  6. Here to comment on the 12z models. Would be the largest snowstorm of the season in the twin cities. Lock it in. I’m sticking with seasonal trends and thinking this thing won’t wind up as much and we’ll see 0.50” of rain transition over to a white rain.
  7. 0.03” of rain overnight. Still searching for any real precipitation around here.
  8. 20:1 snow really goes quickly. Bare ground again. Hoping for some rain to wash the salt away if it’s gonna stay warm.
  9. 2025 total precipitation through 2/22 for select Midwest cities. It’s been dry and boring here for awhile. Couldn’t find a major Midwest city with less precipitation then Minneapolis YTD. St. Louis: 3.99” Columbus: 3.97” Indianapolis: 2.66” Chicago: 2.39” Detroit: 2.13” Moline: 1.90” Duluth: 1.57” Milwaukee: 0.98” Madison: 0.70” Des Moines: 0.59” Minneapolis: 0.51”
  10. Minneapolis has been below zero 11 of the past 12 mornings but we only managed a low of 1 this morning.
  11. Sure I’ll take that, and you can have all of our 95+ days this summer.
  12. Been out skiing 14 times so far this winter, below my average but it’s getting tough with young kids and no trips out west. Fun has been had regardless.
  13. MSP has a 5” snow depth heading into this latest cold snap. The current (1990-2020) average lows below zero in winter is 22. Winter 2024/25 is at 22 with at least 5-6 more this upcoming week.
  14. 2-3” reports across the metro this morning. Getting some east Michigan style mood flakes currently. Another Very light and powdery snow. I don’t think we’ve had any snows this winter under 12:1 SLR
  15. MSP reported 1.2” while just south across the river there is a 1.9” report and the NWS office reported 1.7”. I’m measuring 1.7” on my sidewalk. Light snow keeps back building to St. Cloud so we might tack on some more.
  16. WAA stuff is winding down now. Good few hours of rippage with vis at 0.50mi, gonna eyeball ~2” here, we’ll see what the official measurement from MSP is in an hour. Maybe another 1/2-1” tomorrow as the CAA ramps up and the arctic comes to town for the week.
  17. I’m just going to expect 1-2” here today and anything else is a bonus. Models are really making this a fun one to track.
  18. MPX is bullish. Point and click has 3.1” imby.
