URGENT - WINTER WEATHER MESSAGE
National Weather Service Twin Cities/Chanhassen MN
552 AM CST Mon Dec 29 2025

...HAZARDOUS TRAVEL CONDITIONS TO PERSIST TODAY DUE TO BLOWING SNOW
AND SLIPPERY ROADS...

.Although the potent storm system responsible for the blizzard
conditions and accumulating snow has shifted east of the area, its
residual impacts will persist across central and southern MN through
western WI. Road conditions are still hazardous due to icy layers
under the accumulating snow, while elevated winds are still producing
reduced visibility and blowing snow conditions. These elements will
make for hazardous travel conditions through the day today, even with
winds diminishing and partial clearing by later today.

If necessary to be out traveling today, motorists are urged to allow
plenty of extra travel time and allow plenty of space between
vehicles as slippery roads may still be encountered.
