There are more snow chances to come after this, over the weekend and throughout next week so stay tuned for more on those chances. I love how the pattern is setting up for us this year, and it would not at all surprise me to see a lot of snow chances these next few weeks #mnwx #wiwx #snow #winterwx

Overall this won’t be an insane amount of snow accumulation, but I am thinking we add another 1-2 inches off of this currently. Some areas locally could see 3+ inches. If the returns from the radars in the Dakotas continue to look as strong as they do now,I’d bump these totals up another inch or two

with the best chances of 6+ inches on the S portion of the metro. Lower totals expected as you head N.

We will need to watch for any last minute shifts, as any shift N could lead to higher snow totals in the metro and any shift S could decrease snow amounts in the metro more #mnwx #wiwx #mspweather

However with time tonight, models show this profile continuing to saturate, and with time especially as we head into tommorow morning and beyond, snow should begin to accumulate in the metro. The Twin Cities metro remains right on the gradient of the storm (continued)

People who may be traveling post Thanksgiving should be watching this very closely. More updates from me will be provided as appropriate. Stay tuned #weather #usweather #winterwx #winter #snow #winterstorm #snowstorm

While there is still a significant amount of disagreement on the exact specifics, there is certainly potential for this to be a very powerful system. In addition, because of the timeframe, it is certainly possible for post Thanksgiving travel back home to be significantly impacted

Open the door for winter storms across these areas and across the western US. Attached here is the latest runs of the ensembles from the GEFS/EPS/CMCE, as well as the Euro AIFS. Regardless of what you use, there is a significant signal on all the guidance atm

I personally lean toward the GEFS solution and the EPS solutions. However anything can still happen given the timeframe we’re at. But to wrap this up: Expect a slow then eventually more substantial increase in storm activity across the CONUS as we move through the next few weeks.
