Sunday Brings Significant Snowfall: First Alert Forecast
Minnesota and Wisconsin are preparing for a significant winter storm forecasted for Sunday. The Minnesota’s Weather Authority has issued a First Alert due to the expected severe weather conditions.
Sunday’s Weather Outlook
The day will start with relatively mild temperatures in the low 30s. However, weather conditions will change rapidly. Rain and a wintry mix are anticipated to begin just after sunrise.
Impact of the Arctic Front
An arctic front is moving in from the northwest. This will cause temperatures to drop sharply into the teens and 20s. As temperatures fall, steady to heavy snowfall is expected to develop.
Hazardous Conditions Ahead
- Wind gusts reaching up to 40 MPH
- Significant snow accumulation, particularly along and east of the I-35 corridor
- Hazardous road conditions with limited visibility
By early Monday morning, several inches of snow accumulation are likely, leading to challenging travel conditions. This winter storm is expected to be a high-impact weather event.
Stay informed with updates from El-Balad as conditions may change. Preparedness is key when facing significant snowfall and winter weather. Stay safe and take necessary precautions when commuting during this time.
