"Record Snowfall and Wild Weather: A Recap of This Week's Twin Cities Storms"

Minnesota experienced a rare and extreme weather event with a three-day snowstorm that dropped over 6 inches of snow across more than 60% of the state, along with an inch of rain in some areas, erasing precipitation deficits. This combination of heavy snow and rain is a rare meteorological feat, occurring only twice on record in the past 40 years. A winter weather advisory is in effect for northeastern Minnesota and northwestern Wisconsin, with warmer temperatures expected late next week, possibly reaching the 70s.
