"Midwest Snowstorm: Impact and Updates for Tuesday"

A storm system continues to impact Minnesota with temperatures dropping below freezing and periods of snow expected throughout the day, particularly in eastern Minnesota where additional snowfall accumulations are anticipated. Gusty winds will persist, and temperatures will remain chilly into Wednesday and Thursday. However, there is hope for a gradual warm-up heading into the weekend, with highs returning to the 40s in southern Minnesota and 30s in the north, along with a couple of chances for rain and snow showers. The recent snow and rain have provided much-needed moisture, closing in on 1 to 2 inches of liquid equivalent precipitation from Duluth through the Twin Cities and Rochester, potentially alleviating previous precipitation deficits.
