Instead of northern Minnesota and the Arrowhead getting most of the rain from Saturday’s system, the storm actually shifted farther south than the models suggested. That meant eastern Minnesota and northwest Wisconsin — including the Twin Ports and North Shore — ended up with the bullseye, picking up around a quarter inch to nearly seven-tenths of an inch, with the highest total at 0.69 inches in French River, MN.
