Rain and snow this morning; windy with falling temperatures today

Winter storm warning northeastern Minnesota

Here’s a quick look at your Thursday weather. The morning commute will be sloppy in some areas. We start with rain, then we’ll have a rain/snow mix that changes to all snow. Precipitation will end before noon.

The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration's North American Mesoscale (NAM) forecast model shows the potential precipitation pattern from 6 a.m. to noon this Thursday:

Accumulations in the metro area will be light (less than 1 inch) and the southeast metro might see just a light coating of snow.
