Rain transitions into snow late Tuesday in Twin Cities
The first of three rounds of snow arrives in Minnesota Tuesday night, with just enough accumulation to slow the Wednesday morning commute.
Rain turned to snow just after dinner time Tuesday, with evening snow falling mostly north of the Twin Cities — but metro residents will likely wake up Wednesday to an inch or more of snowy accumulation on grassy areas.
The metro will see some cool sunshine Wednesday with highs in the 40s and a brisk wind, before another system moves in on Thursday. Most accumulation will be north of the metro, with the southern suburbs likely seeing lighter totals.
Then over the weekend, NEXT Weather meteorologists are keeping an eye on another, stronger winter system. The amount of potential snow isn't clear at this point, but could impact travel.
Colder air is also expected to follow this system.
