Winter Weather Advisory

While it isn't the first winter weather advisory of the season, per se, it is the most significant. A weak clipper system will progress southeast over the region this evening and overnight, bringing some accumulating snows to the area. It shouldn't be much to cause any big issues, but slick spots on the roads will still likely be found out there, I'm sure.

A WINTER WEATHER ADVISORY REMAINS IN EFFECT UNTIL MIDNIGHT CST TONIGHT.

.SNOW WILL CONTINUE TO SPREAD FROM WEST TO EAST ACROSS NORTHERN PARTS OF THE REGION INTO MID EVENING WITH THE PASSAGE OF A STRONG COLD FRONT. 1 TO 2 INCHES OF SNOW ARE FORECAST TO ACCUMULATE ALONG AND NORTH OF A LINE FROM MADDOCK NORTH DAKOTA THROUGH HALSTAD MINNESOTA TO MAHNOMEN MINNESOTA.

WINDS ARE EXPECTED TO BECOME NORTH AND RAPIDLY INCREASE TO 20 TO 30 MPH WITH SOME HIGHER GUSTS INTO THE EVENING. COMBINED WITH THE NEW SNOW...VISIBILITIES WILL BE REDUCED ESPECIALLY IN OPEN COUNTRY CREATING HAZARDOUS TRAVEL.

In addition, much colder air will filter in behind the associated cold front tonight. I wouldn't be surprised to see our first sub-zero temperatures tonight. Ugh!
