Snow storm summary

Saturday evening and night, a swath of snow associated with an area of low pressure lifted northeast out of the south, and passing through south central WI. The band of snow was on the northwest side of the low, dropping anywhere between 3 and 8 inches of snow across parts of Minnesota and Wisconsin. Below is the snow total map, although some areas near the metro didn't receive as much as what is being shown. The map does, however, give you an idea of where the snow did set up, which was a bit further north than previously forecast.



With a fairly sticky snow, and pretty much no wind, the snow was able to stick to tree branches with ease, creating quite the winter wonderland when people woke up Sunday morning. Here are a couple pictures I snapped.






Other than a few shots of cold air coming in, the weather appears to be going back to that boring state yet again. These shots of cold may be able to squeeze some flurries out, but at this point no major systems in the works (other than the GFS bringing in something a week and a half away, but it is too far away to be credible at the moment).
