...Winter storm slowly moving away from the area...

.A Winter Storm Warning continues for areas south of a line from
Hutchinson to Forest Lake to Ladysmith. Snow will taper off and
end later this evening in Minnesota, and end after midnight in
Wisconsin. Accumulations of 1 to 2 inches are expected during the
evening. Blowing or drifting snow is also expected in open areas,
and some of the drifting snow will turn to ice as it gets blown 
across roads in open country.

A Winter Weather Advisory remains in effect for portions of
central and east central Minnesota and northwest Wisconsin, mainly
from Buffalo and Princeton to Taylors Falls and Rice Lake. 
Another inch of snow is possible in this area before it tapers off
this evening and later night.

The main hazard will be icy roads as temperatures fall this
evening. Slow down and be especially cautious when braking or 
accelerating.
