Febuary 1 Snowfall

A quick system will move over the Plains states during the overnight tonight and through tomorrow, leaving a little more snow over parts of the Northern and Central Plains.  This upper level disturbance will move over the Plains, and while moisture isn't abundant it will be able to squeeze out a few inches over parts of the Dakotas, Minnesota, Iowa and further east into the Great Lakes.  Other areas across Nebraska and Missouri may also be able to squeeze out an inch or so of snowfall tomorrow.  Snowfall should be across the eastern Dakotas during the morning hours tomorrow, over MN/IA/NE/MO through the late morning and afternoon hours, and then lingering over parts of MN/IA/MO and points east during the overnight and into Tuesday for the Great Lakes region.

Snow totals will range from 2-4 inches across southern North Dakota, northern/eastern South Dakota, southern Minnesota, northern Iowa, and then over the IL/WI borders.  Up to an inch of snowfall may be seen across adjacent areas of the Dakotas/Minnesota/Iowa/Nebraska/Missouri and then also extreme northern Kansas, and points east into the Great Lakes regions.  For specifics on your areas, check out your local NWS office for the latest snowfall forecasts...
