How much snow fell in Minnesota's spring storm? Here are the reports.

A spring snowstorm continues to drop plowable snow in the Twin Cities and other parts of Minnesota Wednesday morning, with some areas seeing a foot of snow. 

Due to the snow and accompanying strong wing gusts that are impacting visibility, WCCO issued NEXT Weather and NEXT Drive alerts. Metro Transit also temporarily suspended all bus service due to road conditions, as has the Minnesota Valley Transit Authority.

Many Minnesota schools closed or went virtual Wednesday due to significant snow and wind conditions. 

But how much snow ended up falling?

As of 12 p.m., 9.5 inches of snow fell at Minneapolis-St. Paul International Airport, according to the National Weather Service. In Chanhassen, 7.4 inches is being reported. Just over an inch of snow has been reported in St. Cloud. In Wisconsin, Hudson had nearly 10 inches of snow and River Falls had about 10.5 inches.

Further to the north, the NWS is reporting about a couple of inches in Duluth. 

The largest snowfall totals are being reported south of the metro and in southeastern Minnesota, including Dennison (13 inches), Credit River (12 inches) and Nerstrand (11.9 inches). Parts of Woodbury, Elko New Market, Newport, Stillwater, Owatonna, Montgomery and Apple Valley saw 11 or more inches of snow. 

According to WCCO's Weather Watcher Network, a couple of areas in Eagan saw 11.5 to 12 inches of snow. Though not officially confirmed, over 14 inches of snow was reported in Northfield.
