1.5” of slop to briefly freshen up the melting pack this morning. Sunny and 30 degrees to close out February. This month has now seen 5.9” of snow on an average of 7.5”
-
Local roads getting dicey from the slush we received overnight.
-
Posted in wrong thread before. Solid fat dendrites last few hours but marginal temps limiting accumulation. We’ve finally dropped from 37 when the snow started to 32 at 10am so things are starting to stick better. 6-8” reports in the narrow weenie band up by St. Cloud.

Woke up to a surprise WWA for overnight Saturday into Sunday morning. 2-4” from a thread the needle event. WSW to my southwest. Wasn’t expecting this system to be that dynamic. Will be nice to freshen that mangy ragged snowpack even if just for a few days.
-
Hopefully things improve up north for my spring trip to Lutsen.
-
Unless we see a big turnaround in March/April I’m more worried about low water levels then flooding up here.
-
Low of 24 and another day of slowly melting pack.
-
Right around freezing with light snow this morning. Coating on the roads creating very slippery conditions here.
-
Today was the first 40 degree day at MSP since the early morning hours of December 23rd before the pre Christmas blizzard hit.
-
Good catch @Hoosier it's more the Lake of the Woods region and Warroad further west that is really hurting.

Areas of east TX and LA have had more snow on the season then International Falls MN!

You can really see areas up north are struggling this year in the snow department.

Finished with 0.7” here and 1.2” at the NWS office.
-
Mood flakes with periods of -SN most of the day. Not adding up to a whole lot, but a solid 0.5" to freshen everything up before the melt begins tomorrow will be nice.
-
Not expecting more then a DAB+ here but maybe we can squeeze out a few tenths.
-
Sorry to hear that. In 2018 when we got 39” in February squirrels used the deep snow to get into our house through the pvc sump pump vent normally 3.5’ off the ground. They wrecked havoc to our wooden window sills trying to chew their way out.
-
-2 here for the low. -8 to -10 just outside the metro.
-
Average February 2021 temperature in Minneapolis is 2.4F No doubt this will rise in the coming days, but an impressive first 2/3 of the month.
-
Made it down to -1 here so below zero 13 of the past 14 days. Starting to notice it getting light at 6:30am when I get to the office.
-
Light snow/mood flakes all night and into the morning put down another 0.2" of fluff. Did keep temperatures in check and our first night above zero since February 4th. Nice dendrites look to be floating down all day.
-
High of 9 today with 0.6” of snow.
-
Light snow all morning with a temp around 2-4. Warmest it's snowed in almost two weeks. Probably will end up around 0.5"
-
Only managed to get down to -3 here as cloud cover kept us relatively warm. Trade off is mood flakes all day.
-
Per the NWS at MSP: 281 consecutive hours with a windchill of zero or below. 2/4-2/16 116 consecutive hours with an air temperature of zero or below. 2/11-2/16 225 cumulative hours spent below zero in February so far. (Most since 1936)

Feb 17-19th Potential Of Potential

Yeah I’m not worried about it. We are only about 2” ahead of norm to date. Our time will come again, and the deep prolonged cold was enjoyable. I was just trying to remind you that we all can’t cash in all the time and although it’s frustrating watching big dog totals come in a county away I’m sure within the next 5 years you’ll see a foot in early December and Alec will have cold rain and dust at the end.
