Heavy snow with no hype

The National Weather Service has just posted a report of five inches of snow as of 6am at Fairmont. With what I am seeing on radar and out my window, along with this projection from the high resolution model, it is clear that the Twin Cities may see ten plus inches of snowfall. Again the greatest amount should be west Metro and up to Duluth.

The center of the low pressure was near Des Moines at daybreak. As it tracks toward LaCrosse, WI we will endure about ten hours of heavy to moderate snowfall.

The red on this graphic is ten inches of total accumulation by 6pm.
