Additional Notes from this snow event
-Snowfall totals have come in lower than what was forecasted across far northern Minnesota, with reports of about 1 to 3 inches of snow through Sunday morning from International Falls to Ely, including the Arrowhead of Minnesota and the Grand Marais area; however, snow is expected to continue to fall across far northern Minnesota and over the Arrowhead through the day, so a couple more inches of accumulation is quite probable.
-The rest of northeast and east-central Minnesota and all of northwest Wisconsin have seen snowfall totals in that range of 3 to 6 inches, which was the forecasted range for this event.
This was my final snowfall forecast for this event; again, the 6-10″ and 3-5″ zones on the map haven’t verified too well as of mid-morning on Sunday. Otherwise, the rest of the forecasted totals look pretty good based on reports.
