.DISCUSSION...(This evening through Thursday)
Issued at 221 PM CST Thu Mar 3 2022

KEY MESSAGES:

- Confidence remains high for drizzle & freezing drizzle will fall
  across the eastern 1/3 of MPX CWA Friday night into Saturday
  morning.

- Wintry Mix is likely on Saturday for W Minnesota and NW Wisconsin.
  A transition to rain is expected elsewhere.

- Saturday evening into Saturday night has the best possibility of
  accumulating snow across central & western Minnesota, with
  rain/wintry mix transitioning to snow late Saturday.

- Still a possibility of a few strong to severe storms along the
  Iowa border Saturday afternoon/evening.

A dry, cold airmass remains overhead this afternoon. A band of light
snow is apparent on radar over SW MN but the dry air overhead has
limited any snow from making it to the surface [Virga]. This band will
lift north with no sensible impacts at the surface. Models have
continued with warmer solution for the weekend system. This takes the
sfc low farther to the north/northeast across the Upper Midwest.
Models have also diminished the chances of precipitation until Friday
night, with more widespread precipitation Saturday afternoon into
Saturday night. Initial wave will bring a round of light
wintry mix before freezing drizzle and drizzle develop across eastern
MN and western WI. There is still uncertainty regarding air
temperatures during this period but most locations should be within a
few degrees either side of 32f. An area of deeper moisture and more
focused isentropic lift will lead to a better chance at some
sustained freezing rain early Saturday morning. A glaze of ice
accumulation is likely, a few hundredths up to a tenth is possible
across western WI.

A lull in activity is likely Saturday afternoon ahead of the main wave
moves through. Western and portions of central MN will see wintry
mix develop with snow, sleet, freezing rain, and rain all possible. A
light glaze of ice is likely. There was discussion with neighboring
WFOs about a potential headline, but it was decided to wait for
another model run to see if there would be more consistency in the
warmer solution. Warm front will lift through and temperatures warm
into the 40 and 50s across southern Minnesota. SPC has a day 3
marginal risk with thunderstorms likely across southern Minnesota,
but the severity is questionable. The other aspect to this storm
system is whether enough moisture on the back side of it will produce
measurable snowfall. Again, this is based on the current model
trends and thus any slight shift would cause the significant
differences on amounts and location of these winter weather elements.
The best potential of several inches of snowfall remains across west
& central Minnesota Saturday night into Sunday morning.

Past Sunday, the pattern shifts to a more northwest flow aloft.
Thus, cooler conditions will likely follow this weekends storm
system.

&&

.AVIATION...(For the 06Z TAFS through 06Z Friday night)
Issued at 1100 PM CST Thu Mar 3 2022

VFR for most of the TAF period before our next system moves in on
Friday night bringing MVFR CIGS, rain, and snow. Winds will remain
light overnight before increasing during the day on Friday. Expect
easterly to southeasterly winds of 10 to 15 knots with gusts up
around 20 knots. As the system moves in Friday evening LLWS will be
present especially for the more eastern TAF sites (MSP, RNH, EAU, and
possibly MKT). There is less than 30 percent chance for
precipitation before 06Z, so it is only included in the MSP TAF.

KMSP... VFR to continue overnight into Friday with lowering ceilings
starting in the evening into Friday night reaching into MVFR. Winds
will pick up during the day on Friday up into the 10 to 15 knot range
with gusts up around 20 knots. As the next system moves in expect
LLWS in the evening into the following overnight period.
Precipitationwill begin between 03Z and and 08Z as a wintry mix. By
08Z and possibly sooner it should switch from a mix to all rain.

/OUTLOOK FOR KMSP/

Sat...MVFR/IFR. Wintry mix transitioning to -RA during the day, and
transitioning to -SN overnight. Wind NE 10-20 kts.
Sun...MVFR/IFR with -SN early, then VFR. Wind NW 10-15 kts.
Mon...VFR with MVFR ceilings possible. Wind NW at 10-20 kts.
