THE LOW PRESSURE CENTER IS FORECAST TO MOVE VERY SLOWLY EASTWARD
ACROSS NORTHERN MINNESOTA TONIGHT. LIGHT SNOW SHOWERS WILL
GRADUALLY END ACROSS THE DAKOTAS AND PORTIONS OF MINNESOTA BETWEEN
THIS EVENING AND EARLY SUNDAY. ADDITIONAL SNOW ACCUMULATIONS OF
1-2 INCHES ARE POSSIBLE FORM THE EASTERN DAKOTAS TO NORTHERN
MINNESOTA. BLOWING SNOW CAN BE LIFE-THREATENING AND MAKE ROADS
IMPASSABLE, ESPECIALLY IN CENTRAL/NORTHERN NORTH DAKOTA. THESE
CONDITIONS SHOULD IMPROVE ON SUNDAY AS THE LOW CONTINUES TO WEAKEN
AND DEPARTS INTO ONTARIO.
THIS WILL BE THE LAST STORM SUMMARY ISSUED BY THE WEATHER
PREDICTION CENTER FOR THIS EVENT. PLEASE REFER TO YOUR LOCAL
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE OFFICE FOR ADDITIONAL INFORMATION.
