Get Set For Minnesota's First Significant Snow Of The Season

Much of Minnesota will see 3-5 inches, and possibly more, of heavy, wet snow tomorrow spreading from west to east. “Most places will see it snow for anywhere from maybe 5-10 hours,” says climatologist Kenny Blumenfeld in a special edition of Way Over Our Heads. A slushy mix of rain and snow in some areas will slicken up roads and sidewalks. And while the snow will not be as memorable as the Halloween blizzard of 1991, Blumenfeld says it could be a record-breaker in one sense since the Twin Cities has never recorded a 3” snowfall before October 29th. This is one of a trifecta of storm systems that will impact the region this week with the next one coming on Thursday and another expected over the weekend.
