Regional Weather ViewA new couple of fairly complex storm systems has it's sights set on the Upper Midwest for early to middle this week, The 1st one it could bring significant snowfall accumulations to South Dakota, Southern Minnesota, Northern Iowa and a part of Southern Wisconsin. The 1st system will merge with a second low pressure system moving northeast. which could produce Major accumulating snows in southern Wisconsin and Northern Illinois, blizzard conditions are possible in the this area as well. Minor accumulations appears likely across most of the rest of Minnesota and Wisconsin. Cooler and drier conditions settle in for Tuesday.
Local View
Note: The system has been projected far enough north for me to upped snowfall amounts slightly in southern areas and centreal areas.
Locally Sunday will start off cloudy with fair temperatures, it is not until late Sunday evening, probably around or after 10pm that snow will begin to develop. Temperatures Sunday will be fair in the mid teens and lows in the upper single digits. Sunday Night into Monday is when we expect the most accumulating snows, it could be moderate at times especially south of highway 48 in the morning hours. Temperatures Monday will again in the mid 10s with lows in the single digits. Tuesday flurries will still be possible early, but should eventually give way to clearing skies late in the afternoon, highs as a result of colder air coming in will be in the lows 10s and lows will be in the single digits below zero.
Accumulations
Accumulations now look slightly higher in both southern and central areas I've upped amounts to 3-5" in southern Polk and Barron countes mainly south of Highway 8, and have added a chance to see 6" in far southern parts of the area mainly south of I-94. Snow in these areas could be moderate at times. Farther north mainly south of State Road 70s in Northern Polk and Barron counties and far southwestern Burnett county will Amounts will see amounts closer to 2-3" Then amouts will fall off even more for the rest of Burnett and Washburn counties which will see 1-2"
Sunday, Cloudy skies, fair temperatures in the mid teens. Sunday Night, Cloudy with snow developing late. lows in the upper single digits.
Monday, A good chance of snow, some could be moderate at times in the morning hours. Highs in the mid 10s. Monday Night, Snow tapering to light snow with lows in the single digits.
Tuesday, Snow tapering to flurries then clearing skies. Totals system accumulation 1-3" North 3-5" up to 6" south. Highs in the low teens. Tuesday night, Partly Cloudy with lows in the upper single digits below zero
Looking Ahead
Wednesday a fairly try large Winter Storm misses us to the southeast, but will bring us much colder conditions from the north, it looks especially cold, which could even be called brutally cold around the Thursday 3rd of February, highs would definitely be below zero if the models turned out on this. Friday and Saturday the 4th and 5th looks warmer and drier before things get more active again for Monday the 7th when a small system could bring us minor accumulations. Much colder conditions follow behind this system. Things remain cold, but active through the 12th of February. Warmer with continued chances at snow move back our way for the end of the model run on Monday February 14th
