A band of snowfall will likely move through the area on Saturday resulting in a narrow swath of accumulating snow across portions of the region. Uncertainty still remains on the exact location of the band, however confidence is increasing for accumulations of an inch or greater. Be sure to stay tuned to the forecast over the next couple of days as details will change!
Near seasonable temperatures today warm into the upper 40s to low 50s for Friday with strong west-northwest winds gusting above 30 mph. Subsequent snow chances on Saturday may provide a narrow band of higher amounts across the Upper Midwest. The longer forecast hour and narrow nature of potentially heavier snowfall means slight fluctuations in the forecast have a large impact on potentially local impacts. Colder temperatures through the weekend again warm above normal through early next week.
