  1. Interstate 90 was closed between Albert Lea MN and Rapid City SD last night. That’s over 500 miles of interstate! Wind and drifting was a nonfactor in the city. Temperature stayed steady around -11/-12 all night.
  2. Dreaded midnight high of -4F at MSP. Daytime high of -6F, currently at -11F
  3. Starting to blow and drift pretty good here. The stuff coming off the trees is falling like new snow. -8F gusting to 33mph
  4. Driving south on US-52 to ski at Welch Village. Not much wind or drifting yet in rural areas.
  5. Going to try and embrace the cold today. We’ve dropped to -11F
  6. Final storm total of 8.1” brings MSP up to 31.4” on the season. 0.46” liquid equivalent which was 0.10” more then modeled fwiw.
  7. I’m going to attempt to go skiing today before the winds kick in. Gotta get that powder! There should be a nice window of calm today before things start rocking.
  8. My expectations have been exceeded again. Snow ended around 3am. Current temp of -6F. Full throttle winter.
  9. Have had a nice extended period of moderate snow with visibilities at or below a mile. Closing in on 5”
  10. Sigh…WAA always wins. We’ve risen to 1F with steady light snow.
  11. I think it was @Stebowho joked last winter that the models are digesting too much data these days and even a “bird fart” is changing the outcome.
  12. Up to 24.5” on the season. The last several years we’ve started hot. -4 and the snow just started here.
  13. -8F and clouding over. 4-7” in the grid today. Let’s see what happens.
  14. I don’t think I’ve ever been under a Winter Storm Warning while also having a Winter Storm Watch following on it’s heels but here we are.
  15. Just saw 8 Trumpeter Swans fly overhead. A bit late fellas. They might be doomed.
  16. 1.5” refresher snowfall yesterday. Morning low of -2F was the coldest of the season so far.
  17. I was thinking this was a big factor. I’ve got a flight out of MSP 6am Saturday morning, long after impacts in my area are through, but I’m sure I’ll be offered a voucher anyway.
  18. Surprised to see Winter Storm Watches already hoisted for the Twin Cities. 5-10” of snow and wind gusts to 55mph
  19. I suppose it’s time to turn on the MSP magnet. Going to be a distracted workweek tracking this.
  20. low of 0 overnight. Coldest of the season.
