Overview
- Light snow and flurries are spreading across multiple regions this weekend with generally minor totals, commonly a coating to 2 inches.
- Parts of the Upper Midwest are primed for higher amounts, with 3–6 inches possible along I-90 south of the Twin Cities and 1–2 inches in the metro.
- Forecasters expect a sharp drop in temperatures Monday–Tuesday as gusty winds usher in Arctic air, producing single-digit or subzero wind chills in northern areas.
- Model guidance highlights a midweek system likely to bring a brief temperature bump and a rain–snow mix in some regions, with timing and precipitation type still uncertain.
- Travel impacts this weekend look localized and brief, with slick spots from light coatings and lake-effect bands, while the fast clipper pattern keeps periodic snow chances going into late week.
