Expiration: 400 AM CST MON DEC 21 2009
THIS HAZARDOUS WEATHER OUTLOOK IS FOR PORTIONS OF CENTRAL AND
SOUTHERN MINNESOTA...AND WEST CENTRAL WISCONSIN.
.DAY ONE...TODAY AND TONIGHT
SNOW WILL CONTINUE ACROSS CENTRAL AND SOUTHERN MINNESOTA AND
EXPAND INTO WEST CENTRAL WISCONSIN THIS MORNING. 1 TO 2 INCHES OF
ACCUMULATION IS EXPECTED ALONG AND SOUTH OF INTERSTATE 94 IN
MINNESOTA WITH AROUND AN INCH OR LESS NORTH OF INTERSTATE 94 AND
ACROSS WEST CENTRAL WISCONSIN. SNOW WILL TAPER OFF FROM NORTHWEST TO
SOUTHEAST FROM MID MORNING THROUGH LATE AFTERNOON.
.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...MONDAY THROUGH SATURDAY
LIGHT SNOW WILL AGAIN BE POSSIBLE ACROSS PORTIONS OF SOUTH CENTRAL
MINNESOTA MONDAY AFTERNOON AND MONDAY NIGHT. ACCUMULATIONS UP TO
AROUND AN INCH ARE POSSIBLE GENERALLY FROM A MORRIS TO MANKATO TO
ALBERT LEA LINE.
A MORE POTENT STORM SYSTEM MAY DEVELOP OVER THE CENTRAL PLAINS
REGION BY CHRISTMAS EVE...POSSIBLY BRINGING ACCUMULATING SNOW TO
THE OUTLOOK AREA. IT APPEARS THAT PARTS OF SOUTH CENTRAL MINNESOTA
INTO WEST CENTRAL WISCONSIN WOULD BE THE MOST LIKELY PART OF THE OUTLOOK AREA
TO BE AFFECTED...IF THIS STORM DEVELOPS. THERE IS STILL PLENTY OF
UNCERTAINTY REGARDING THIS DEVELOPMENT. THOSE PLANNING TRAVEL
LATER THIS WEEK SHOULD CONTINUE TO MONITOR THE LATEST FORECASTS.
.SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...
SPOTTERS AND SNOWFALL OBSERVERS ARE URGED TO REPORT SNOWFALL
AMOUNTS TO THE NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE.
