An elongated low-pressure system extended from west-central Minnesota to north-central Wisconsin late this afternoon. Cold air was found west and north of this system today with widespread snow, sleet and freezing rain from the Dakotas to northern Minnesota, while warmer air out ahead of this system kept precipitation in the form of rain, and there’s also been a few thunderstorms as well.
Very strong northeast winds have been occurring near Lake Superior today with wind gusts of 40-50 mph.
There’s been reports of around a foot or more of snow in parts of central North Dakota today.
