- No big storms to affect the Northland this week, but a few weaker systems will bring at least a little bit of snow to the area, with a few snow showers and flurries on Monday, followed by a greater chance for some snow on Tuesday, and possibly again on Wednesday, and possibly again for next weekend (Dec. 10-11)
- There is a larger system showing up in model guidance for later this week, but the current track of this system would keep the measurable snow well to the south of the Northland Thursday into early Friday.
- Another shot of arctic air could affect the Northland midweek, but the bulk of the most severe cold will remain farther to the northwest of our area this week.
