Winds have backed to the w /wsw which has promptly said goodbye to the decent banding form earlier.  Should get into some better LES tomorrow night as winds veer back to the NW looks like a dominant band may setup from Superior down through the NWL. These bands can bring down intense snow in a short period. We shall see

Looks like the band is just south of that location currently.

Downtown is in the middle of it right now.

My house is 2 blocks away from that camera and it's coming down pretty good here. I'd say 2"/hr rate and I'm the northern most tip of the band! Downtown to airport is currently taking the brunt.

Looks intense. Band hasn't moved too much over the last half hour by the looks of it.
