Surface observations showed contrasting temperatures between the warm and cold sectors to the east and west of the front, with temperatures in the 40s and 50s over the Great Lakes vicinity to the east of the front, and much colder air filtering in behind the cold front as temperatures dropped from the low to mid-30s immediately behind the front into the teens and eventually single digits extending northwestward through the Upper Midwest into the Northern Plains. NWS Doppler radar showed a broad, comma head area of precipitation, circling around the low and then extending eastward and eventually southward. Areas of light to moderate rainfall continued to the east of the fronts in the warm sector, with radar and surface observations indicating light to moderate snowfall along and to the west of the front over western/northern Wisconsin into eastern Minnesota.

Some additional snowfall accumulations upwards of 3-6" are expected to the northwest of the surface low track through eastern and northern/the Arrowhead of Minnesota and far western/northwestern Wisconsin. Some ice may mix in along and to the north of the stationary front in northern Wisconsin as strong southerly flow brings some warmer air in just above the surface, with ice accretions up to 0.1" possible. Blustery winds will also lead to areas of blowing snow, even for areas further west where snowfall has already come to an end. The snow showers and wintry precipitation will begin to taper off and eventually come to an end into Tuesday night as the system departs the area. Rain showers and storms will continue to the east in the warm sector of the system, with enough upper-level dynamics/intense winds to lead to a few severe wind gusts, with a Slight Risk of Severe Weather from the Storm Prediction Center over southern Michigan, northeastern Indiana, and northwestern Ohio. The next Storm Summary will be issued by the Weather Prediction Center at 1000 PM CDT. Please refer to your local National Weather Service office for additional information on this event. Putnam $$
