Grass has quickly gotten covered in snow. Roads should remain mostly ok. Big band moving in to my backyard soon. Edit. After looking at DOT cameras in the south metro it looks like the roads are getting bad quick under that heavy band moving my way.
I’ll be right on the edge it looks like. Crazy how different the models have been from each other for this storm. These spring ones are so tough to forecast. .
It’s been pretty funny to watch the trend the last couple model runs. Even southern MN is at risk of missing the worst of it if this trend continues. .
That’s how last year was for us in MSP. Almost no snow all winter but we had a good amount at the very end of winter/early spring they made it look like an almost average year. .
Models showing potential for a narrow band of double digit totals. It’s probably overdoing amounts and not taking into account melting a at the beginning after ground temps warmed up the last several days. .
It has been a very frustrating night watching the band of heavy snow hang *just* to my south and east almost all night so far. Really hoping I can cash in on it soon. .
Little layer of sleet on the grass. Looks like it’s switched to snow now. Might be a little ahead of schedule for the change to snow. Probably won’t add much to our forecast amount. .
12z continues the trend. Don’t want to jinx it though by getting my hopes up. Not sure what the 12z hrrr is doing. It takes a weird deviant track with the low. .
Late shift northwest with the snow. Now looks like MSP will get some decent snow with the heaviest falling just southeast of the metro. I still don’t quite believe it but MPX does and issued a winter storm warning for the entire metro. .
