October 11 Noon Snow Update

Been watching METAR’s for the past hours and watching to see where the snow has been falling, a quick write up on how the snow has progressed with areas of ND/MN/SD/NE and WI seeing snowfall so far in the past 6 hours. Expect this snow to continue and possibly increase in some areas over the rest of the day and especially into tonight where temperatures will drop very quickly.

This morning at 7 am we had snowfall in O’Neill to Valentine, NE, along with snowfall reported south of Fargo, ND along the SD/ND/MN intersection. Also had snowfall reported north of the Twin Cities along the MN/WI border along with some sleet/mix precip.

By 10 am we are looking at snowfall in NE still, along a band across central NE. Also scattered snowfall reported in eastern SD that has worked its’ way into southwest MN, other areas of northern MN and around the Twin Cities also reported snow at that time. Much of northwest WI also in snowfall, otherwise rain falling throughout WI/IL at the time.

Just before Noon, snowfall still being reported in that small band across NE, BBW I believe is the station reporting it at this time. Much of MN that is seeing precip. is in the form of snowfall, across northern, southwest and near the Twin Cities, southeast MN however is still in the rainfall. Most of western WI has now turned to snow as well, otherwise some heavy rain actually being reported through the rest of the state and southward into Illinois.
