2-3 Inches Of Snow Possible In Twin Cities Metro: MN Weather
MINNEAPOLIS — A winter weather advisory has been issued for most of the Twin Cities metro area Thursday, with up to 3 inches of accumulating wet, slushy snow possible.
“As colder air begins to move in this morning, the rain will transition to heavy snow from west to east with snowfall rates of an inch per hour at times into early afternoon,” the NWS said.
