URGENT - WINTER WEATHER MESSAGE
National Weather Service Twin Cities/Chanhassen MN
621 PM CST Thu Dec 22 2022

...GROUND BLIZZARD AND DANGEROUSLY COLD CONDITIONS THURSDAY AND
FRIDAY... 
...TRAVEL THURSDAY AFTERNOON THROUGH SATURDAY MORNING COULD BE 
IMPOSSIBLE AND LIFE-THREATENING...

.Other than light flurries, snow has ended across the area. The
main concern transitions to blowing snow which has already picked
up in western Minnesota, eventually spreading over to all
portions of the coverage area by Friday morning. In addition,
arctic air with dangerously cold wind chills will spread across
the region. This event could be life- threatening if you are
stranded with wind chills in the 30 below to 45 below zero range.
Please avoid traveling. In addition, heavy snow remaining on
trees from the last storm and strong winds arriving could result
in tree damage and power outages as temperatures drop below zero.

A Blizzard Warning goes into effect Thursday afternoon and
evening in areas west of the Mississippi River, and in portions
of western Wisconsin beginning Friday morning as winds increase.

.DISCUSSION...(This evening through Thursday)
Issued at 221 PM CST Thu Dec 22 2022

KEY MESSAGES:

- Life threatening conditions will arrive with increasing winds,
  decreasing wind chills, and significantly reduced visibility
  overnight. Stranded travelers could be susceptible to hypothermia
  and frostbite within minutes.

- The worst conditions are expected Friday afternoon through Saturday
  morning, with gusts peaking at 45-50mph. Please do not travel.

- A clipper system will bring light snow Sunday night into Monday
  morning, causing slick conditions for the Monday morning commute.

- A pattern shift will warm temperatures significantly next week,
  with highs by Wednesday in the low to mid 30s.

TONIGHT THROUGH SATURDAY MORNING...
Compared to the overnight forecast, there have been a few changes
but the overall weather picture has remained the same, in that unless
absolutely necessary we do not advise traveling anywhere tomorrow
through early Saturday. Conditions today have been proceeding as
expected, with areas of western and southern Minnesota having been at
or below 1 mile visibility for several hours already, with the
stronger winds making their way eastwards. The gusts will start to
pick up overnight especially, with the daylight hours tomorrow likely
being the worst of the conditions for much of the area.

Forecast soundings from CAMs have led to a small bump up in wind
speeds and gusts expected tomorrow and Saturday, which despite an
increase of only around 5mph has led to the Blizzard Warning being
expanded to include the counties within and around the I-94 corridor
in western Wisconsin. Momentum transfer winds of around 45-50kts are
present at the top of the channel within RAP soundings with the HRRR
only slightly lower, and while we likely won't mix efficiently due to
the blowing snow inhibiting diurnal mixing and some mid level
clouds, we will still have plenty of wind to kick up the fresh snow.
The stronger winds have also led to a slight decrease in the coldest
wind chills, however this has not affected headline decisions as all
of the area was already in either wind chill warnings or advisories.
Conditions will slowly begin to improve on Saturday, but it will
likely be during the day on Sunday before we truly see the end of the
blowing snow concerns as winds above 15-20mph will be present through
at least Noon on Christmas Day. As we have been saying numerous times
throughout the last few days, this event has life threatening
implications should you choose to travel and end up getting stranded
due to both the difficulty of rescue operations and the dangerous
wind chills that could result in frostbite within less than 10
minutes. Even in areas that are not within a Blizzard Warning, they
are still going to be covered by a Winter Storm Warning, so do not
let your guard down at all during the day tomorrow no matter where
you are located.

SUNDAY THROUGH NEXT WEEK...
Christmas Day will see rapid improvement, especially during the
second half of the day, as winds decrease below 10mph with high
pressure beginning to more directly overhead. This will result in one
more cold morning with below zero low temperatures, however with much
weaker winds, our wind chills will only be in the teens below zero.
Another clipper system is looking probable late Sunday through early
Monday which could bring a hit of light snow for much of the area,
currently favoring western and southern Minnesota as the clipper
dives southeastwards. We could end up with a couple of inches of
light snow for the area, however at this point that just adds another
small amount to our currently generous snowpack.

Our pattern is going to shift significantly as
we head into next week, with temperatures slowly increasing such
that highs in the low to mid 30s are possible by Wednesday,
increasing further heading into next weekend. This pattern does look
to persist into the new year, with warmer than normal conditions
favored through the middle of the first week of January. Along with
the warmer temps, there does appear to be another potential system
moving towards the region later next week, and with temperatures
hovering near freezing at times could result in another sloppy event
with multiple precipitation types. For now, we have left that out of
the forecast as there are more immediate concerns than a day 7
freezing rain forecast, however as we get a bit closer expect more
details and discussion revolving around the mixed precipitation
potential.

&&

.AVIATION...(For the 00Z TAFS through 00Z Friday evening)
Issued at 517 PM CST Thu Dec 22 2022

Northwest winds will continue to increase overnight, leading to
blowing snow through much of the period. Wind gusts will generally
range from 20-30 kts tonight, increasing to 30-40 kts overnight &
peaking near 40-45 kts during the day tomorrow.

Blowing snow will be a concern through the period, with IFR/MVFR
visibility tonight becoming predominately IFR tomorrow as the winds
increase. Several hours of visibility below 1SM is possible tomorrow,
especially across western and southern Minnesota.

KMSP...High confidence in the wind speeds forecast, but low
confidence on just how low visibility may drop with the blowing snow.
the trend has been towards pushing back the gusty winds & blowing
snow later and later, with MVFR/IFR vis now not expected until late
tonight. Several hours of IFR visibility is likely beginning tomorrow
morning, especially from mid-morning onwards as wind gusts peak up
to 45 kts at times. Visibility lower than 1SM can't be ruled out if
the blowing snow potential is maximized.

/OUTLOOK FOR KMSP/
Sat...AM MVFR/IFR and BLSN. Wind NW 20G30 kts.
Sun...VFR. Wind SW 5-10 kts.
Mon...VFR. Wind NE 5-10 kts.
