905 PM CST Fri Feb 22 2019

...SIGNIFICANT WINTER IMPACTS EXPECTED TONIGHT THROUGH SUNDAY...

.A Winter Weather Advisory is in effect overnight through Sunday
morning for portions of west central Wisconsin through 
southeastern Minnesota, specifically along and east of a line from
Blue Earth to Faribault in Minnesota, continuing to River Falls 
and Bloomer in Wisconsin. Snowfall accumulations of up to around 2
inches along with up to a tenth of an inch of ice accretion can 
be expected through Saturday morning.

A stronger system is expected for Saturday night through Sunday
when accumulating snow plus blowing snow will impact travel,
including blizzard conditions for much of southern and western
Minnesota.

A Blizzard Warning is in effect Saturday evening through Sunday
afternoon south of a line from Appleton to Litchfield to
Hastings, and along and west of the Interstate 35 corridor. This 
includes southern portions of the Twin Cities metro, away from 
more suburban areas. Within the Blizzard Warning, snow 
accumulations will range from 2 to 4 inches near the South Dakota 
border to 6 to 8 inches along Interstate 35. The snow is expected 
from late Saturday afternoon through the early morning hours 
Sunday, followed by strong winds of 25 to 35 mph with gusts to 
near 50 mph for most of the day Sunday. This could lead to 
whiteout conditions, making travel very difficult or impossible in
the open areas of western, central, and southern Minnesota.

A Winter Storm Warning is in effect Saturday evening through
Sunday afternoon east of line from from Cumberland and New
Richmond in Wisconsin, continuing to Cannon Falls in Minnesota.
Within the Winter Storm Warning, snow accumulations of 6 to
9 inches can be expected with localized higher amounts possible.
The snow is expected Saturday evening through Sunday morning,
followed by strong winds of 20 to 30 mph with gusts to 40 mph for
most of the day Sunday. This may produce areas of blowing and
drifting snow, making travel difficult for portions of far
southeastern Minnesota into west central Wisconsin.

URGENT - WINTER WEATHER MESSAGE
National Weather Service Twin Cities/Chanhassen MN
244 AM CST Sat Feb 23 2019

...DANGEROUS WINTER STORM EXPECTED TONIGHT THROUGH SUNDAY...

.A Winter Weather Advisory continues through Saturday morning for
portions of west central Wisconsin through southeastern 
Minnesota, specifically along and east of a line from Blue Earth 
to Faribault in Minnesota, continuing to River Falls and Bloomer 
in Wisconsin. Snowfall accumulations of up to around 2 inches 
along with up to a tenth of an inch of ice accretion can be 
expected through Saturday morning.

A stronger system is expected for Saturday night through Sunday
when accumulating snow plus blowing snow will impact travel,
including blizzard conditions for much of southern and western
Minnesota.

A Blizzard Warning is in effect Saturday evening through Sunday
afternoon for most locations in Minnesota and Wisconsin south of
I-94. This includes southern portions of the Twin Cities metro, 
away from more suburban areas. Within the Blizzard Warning, snow 
accumulations will range from 1 to 3 inches in the west near the 
South Dakota border to 6 to 8 inches along Interstate 35 and east. 
The snow is expected from late Saturday afternoon through the 
early morning hours Sunday, followed by strong winds of 25 to 35 
mph with gusts to near 50 mph for most of the day Sunday. This 
could lead to whiteout conditions, making travel very difficult or
impossible in the open areas of western, central, and southern 
Minnesota, and far western Wisconsin.

A Winter Storm Warning is in effect Saturday evening through
Sunday afternoon for St Croix, Barron, Rusk, Chippewa, and Eau
Claire counties. Within the Winter Storm Warning, snow 
accumulations of 6 to 9 inches can be expected with localized 
higher amounts possible. The snow is expected Saturday evening 
through Sunday morning, followed by strong winds of 20 to 30 mph 
with gusts to 40 mph for most of the day Sunday. This may produce 
areas of blowing and drifting snow, making travel difficult for 
portions of far southeastern Minnesota into west central 
Wisconsin.

A Winter Storm Watch is in effect for the counties along I-94
for the potential of 1 to 4 inches of snow and very strong wind. 
Winds could gust as high as 40 to 45 mph which could lead to very 
low visibility and dangerous travel.

URGENT - WINTER WEATHER MESSAGE
National Weather Service Twin Cities/Chanhassen MN
1142 AM CST Sat Feb 23 2019

...DANGEROUS WINTER STORM EXPECTED TONIGHT THROUGH SUNDAY...

.A Winter Weather Advisory continues through Saturday morning for
portions of west central Wisconsin through southeastern
Minnesota, specifically along and east of a line from Blue Earth
to Faribault in Minnesota, continuing to River Falls and Bloomer
in Wisconsin. Snowfall accumulations of up to around 2 inches
along with up to a tenth of an inch of ice accretion can be
expected through Saturday morning.

A stronger system is expected for Saturday night through Sunday
when accumulating snow plus blowing snow will impact travel,
including blizzard conditions for much of southern and western
Minnesota.

A Blizzard Warning is in effect Saturday evening through Sunday
afternoon for most locations in Minnesota and Wisconsin south of
I-94. This includes southern portions of the Twin Cities metro,
away from more suburban areas. Within the Blizzard Warning, snow
accumulations will range from 1 to 3 inches in the west near the
South Dakota border to 6 to 8 inches along Interstate 35 and
east. The snow is expected from late Saturday afternoon through
the early morning hours Sunday, followed by strong winds of 25 to
35 mph with gusts to near 50 mph for most of the day Sunday. This
could lead to whiteout conditions, making travel very difficult
or impossible in the open areas of western, central, and southern
Minnesota, and far western Wisconsin.

A Winter Storm Warning is in effect Saturday evening through
Sunday afternoon for St Croix, Barron, Rusk, Chippewa, and Eau
Claire counties. Within the Winter Storm Warning, snow
accumulations of 6 to 9 inches can be expected with localized
higher amounts possible. The snow is expected Saturday evening
through Sunday morning, followed by strong winds of 20 to 30 mph
with gusts to 40 mph for most of the day Sunday. This may produce
areas of blowing and drifting snow, making travel difficult for
portions of far southeastern Minnesota into west central
Wisconsin.

A Winter Storm Watch is in effect for the counties along I-94 for
the potential of 1 to 4 inches of snow and very strong wind.
Winds could gust as high as 40 to 45 mph which could lead to very
low visibility and dangerous travel.
