SHORT TERM...TONIGHT THROUGH SATURDAY NIGHT.

COUPLE SHORT TERM FORECAST ISSUES. THE FIRST IS LAKE EFFECT ALONG
THE SOUTH SHORE...WHERE AROUND 2 INCHES OF SNOW HAS FALLEN SO FAR
IN THE SNOWBELT OF IRON COUNTY. WINDS WILL VEER TO MORE NORTHERLY
TONIGHT...WITH FAVORABLE INVERSION HEIGHTS. LOW LEVEL STABILITY
COULD BE BETTER FOR HEAVY SNOW...BUT SOME ADDITIONAL LIFT WILL
OCCUR WITH UPPER LEVEL SHORTWAVE AND SURFACE TROUGH EXTENDING
THROUGH THE SOUTH SHORE AREA. WE'LL HAVE TO MONITOR CONDITIONS
CLOSELY TONIGHT FOR POSSIBLE GREATER AMOUNTS AND UPGRADE TO
WARNING. SPOTTERS AND WEBCAMS REVEAL SNOW HAS COME THROUGH IN
SQUALLS. ELSEWHERE TONIGHT...SNOW SHOWERS/FLURRIES CAN BE EXPECTED
OVER MOST AREAS...WITH A BETTER CHANCE OVER THE ARROWHEAD/BORDER
REGION CLOSER TO THE TROUGH.

LAKE EFFECT SNOW SHOWERS SHOULD DIMINISH THROUGH THE DAY SATURDAY
AS WINDS BACK AROUND TO MORE WESTERLY. CLOUDS SHOULD DIMINISH MOST
AREAS ON SATURDAY.

A LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM WILL MOVE INTO EASTERN HALF OF THE
DAKOTAS(DEPENDING ON THE MODEL) BY 12Z SUNDAY. WAA WILL BE INCREASING
SATURDAY NIGHT AS WELL...AND SNOW WILL DEVELOP ACROSS PORTIONS OF
NORTHLAND...WITH HIGHEST CHANCES OVER OUR MN CWA. ACCUMULATIONS
SATURDAY NIGHT MAY APPROACH 1-2 INCHES OVER PORTIONS OF THE FAR
WEST.

LONG TERM...SUNDAY THROUGH THURSDAY NIGHT...

MAIN CONCERNS IN THE EXTENDED PERIOD ARE FOCUSED AROUND TWO SEPARATE
WINTER STORMS EXPECTED TO MOVE THROUGH THE NORTHLAND AND DROP
SIGNIFICANT ACCUMULATING SNOW ACROSS THE REGION. THE FIRST SYSTEM
WILL TRACK A SFC LOW FROM W-CENTRAL MN EWD TO THE TWIN PORTS AREA AND
EVENTUALLY INTO THE WRN GRT LAKES REGION. THE PATH OF THE LOW WILL
BE A DETERMINING FACTOR IN WHERE THE HEAVIEST SNOW DEVELOPS. LOW LVL
WARM AIR WILL ADVECT NWD FROM THE LOWER MS VALLEY...AHEAD OF THE SFC
LOW INTO PARTS OF NE MN EARLY SUNDAY MORNING AND ALLOW A NARROW BAND
OF MID-LVL F-GEN TO FOCUS MDT TO OCCASIONALLY HVY SNOW ACROSS PARTS
OF NE MN. BOTH THE GFS AND NAM ARE INDICATING A PERIOD OF STRONG
VERTICAL MOTION IN THE DGZ FROM 12-18Z SUNDAY...WHERE A QUICK 2-4
INCHES OF SNOW COULD FALL IN A SHORT PERIOD OF TIME. THE OTHER AREA
THAT COULD SEE INTENSE SNOWFALL RATES WILL BE ALONG THE NORTH SHORE
DUE TO A PROLONGED PERIOD OF E/SE WINDS OVER WRN LAKE SUPERIOR
DIRECTLY INTO THE ELEVATED TERRAIN OF LAKE AND COOK COUNTIES. THE
COMBINATION OF THE OROGRAPHIC AND LAKE EFFECT PROCESSES WILL LEAD TO
THE HIGHEST SNOW AMOUNTS IN THIS AREA DURING THE ENTIRE EVENT
SUNDAY. THERE WILL LIKELY BE A BROAD AREA OF 5 TO 7 INCHES ACROSS
MUCH OF NE MN...NORTH OF LINE FROM BRAINERD TO DULUTH...WITH THE
TWIN PORTS AREA SEEING AROUND 4 TO 6 INCHES. SOME AREAS OF THE NORTH
SHORE COULD SEE 8 TO 10 INCHES. OTHER AREAS TO THE SOUTH AND INTO NW
WI COULD SEE 3 TO 5 INCHES...WITH LESSER AMOUNTS THE FURTHER SOUTH
YOU GO. A WINTER STORM WATCH IS IN EFFECT FOR MUCH OF NE MN FROM 6
AM SUNDAY TO 9 AM MONDAY.

WILL SEE A BRIEF BREAK LATE MON AND EARLY TUE BEFORE THE NEXT STORM
SYSTEM MOVES IN FROM THE SW LATE TUESDAY. AT THIS TIME IT APPEARS
THIS SYSTEM WILL BE ABLE TO TAP INTO MORE MOISTURE THAN THE PREVIOUS
STORM...WHICH WOULD MEAN MUCH HIGHER SNOWFALL AMOUNTS...OR AT LEAST
MORE WIDESPREAD PERIODS OF HEAVY SNOW. AGAIN...THERE ARE SOME
DIFFERENCES IN THE EXACT TRACK OF THE SFC LOW WITH THE ECMWF TAKING
THE SRN PATH AND THE GFS AND GEM TRACKING MORE NRLY. THERE IS
RELATIVELY GOOD AGREEMENT AMONG THE MODELS IN THE IDEA OF THIS BEING
A HEAVY PRECIP EVENT...ALL SNOW FOR THE NORTHLAND...AND RAIN TO THE
SOUTH. SO...WILL NEED TO MONITOR HOW THE MODELS TREND IN THE NEXT
FEW DAYS AND THEN BE ABLE TO HAVE A BETTER HANDLE ON THIS SYSTEM.
TEMPERATURES REMAIN STEADY AND NEAR NORMAL THROUGH THE PERIOD WITH
HIGHS IN THE 20S AND LOWS IN THE SINGLE DIGITS AND TEENS.

AVIATION...00Z TAF ISSUANCE...

LOW END VFR CEILINGS AT THE PRESENT TIME WILL FALL TO HIGH END MVFR
CEILINGS EARLY THIS EVENING. SOME LIGHT SNOW SHOWERS WILL ACCOMPANY
THE LOWER CEILINGS WITH MVFR VISIBILITIES POSSIBLE AT HIB AND INL.
SNOW SHOWERS WILL END BY DAYBREAK WITH CONTINUED MVFR CEILINGS.
CLOUDS WILL BREAK AND LIFT TO LOW END VFR BY EARLY SATURDAY
AFTERNOON FOR BRD...WHILE THE REMAINDER OF THE TERMINALS WILL SEE
MORE MVFR CEILINGS ALONG WITH LIGHT AND VARIABLE WINDS.

THIS HAZARDOUS WEATHER OUTLOOK IS FOR NORTHEAST MINNESOTA AND
NORTHWEST WISCONSIN.

.DAY ONE...THIS AFTERNOON AND TONIGHT

LAKE EFFECT SNOW SHOWERS WILL CONTINUE ACROSS THE SOUTH SHORE OF
LAKE SUPERIOR TONIGHT. SEVERAL INCHES OF SNOW ACCUMULATION WILL BE
POSSIBLE ALONG THE BAYFIELD PENINSULA AND THE GOGEBIC RANGE. A
WINTER WEATHER ADVISORY HAS BEEN ISSUED FOR MUCH OF THE SOUTH
SHORE. SEE THE LATEST WINTER WEATHER PRODUCTS FOR MORE
INFORMATION.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...SATURDAY THROUGH THURSDAY

LAKE EFFECT SNOW SHOWERS WILL GRADUALLY DIMINISH ON SATURDAY...
LEAVING AS MUCH AS 4 TO 7 INCHES OF TOTAL SNOW ACCUMULATION ALONG
THE GOGEBIC RANGE. FOR SPECIFIC INFORMATION...CHECK OUT THE LATEST
WINTER WEATHER PRODUCTS. THE WINTER WEATHER ADVISORY CONTINUES
THROUGH SATURDAY MORNING.

THE FOCUS WILL THEN SHIFT TO THE PERIOD FROM SATURDAY NIGHT
THROUGH SUNDAY NIGHT...AS A LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM MOVES INTO THE
REGION. A WINTER STORM WATCH HAS BEEN ISSUED FOR MOST OF
NORTHEASTERN MINNESOTA...FOR THE POTENTIAL OF 6 INCHES OF SNOW OR
MORE. WE WOULD NOT BE SURPRISED TO SEE A WEST TO EAST BAND OF EVEN
HIGHER AMOUNTS...ALTHOUGH WE EXPECT THE BAND OF MUCH HIGHER
SNOWFALL TO BE FAIRLY NARROW AND MAINLY NORTH OF DULUTH.

IN WHAT IS SHAPING UP TO BE A VERY ACTIVE PERIOD...AN EVEN MORE
POWERFUL STORM SYSTEM MAY IMPACT THE REGION FROM MONDAY NIGHT INTO
THURSDAY. THIS SYSTEM HAS THE POTENTIAL FOR VERY HEAVY
SNOWFALL...BUT AT THIS POINT IT IS NOT POSSIBLE TO PINPOINT
SPECIFIC AMOUNTS. THIS IS DEFINITELY ONE TO KEEP AN EYE ON.

.SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...

SKYWARN SPOTTER ACTIVATION WILL NOT BE NEEDED THIS AFTERNOON OR
TONIGHT.
