Minnesota’s first winter storm of the season will push out Wednesday morning, but tough travel conditions and biting cold will linger.
A winter storm warning will remain in place through mid-morning, and a NEXT Weather Alert is also active.
NEXT Weather Watchers in central Minnesota reported between 5 and 8 inches, while the official measurement at Minneapolis-St. Paul International Airport was 3.1 inches.
Blowing snow will create reduced visibility and icy spots on Wednesday.
Much colder air will pour in behind the departing system, keeping highs in the 20s and wind chills in the single digits.
Thanksgiving looks to be quiet and bright, but cold, with highs in the 20s and light winds.
Another round of snow is set to arrive late Friday into Saturday, with a few more inches possible south of Interstate 94.
Early next week will likely turn even colder, with highs in the teens and single-digit lows as December begins.
