MINNEAPOLIS (WCCO) — As of last weekend, the Twin Cities had suffered the fourth snowiest winter on record. Now, despite threats of snow, it looks like we will stay locked in fourth place.
According to WCCO-TV meteorologist Chris Shaffer, another round of wet snow developed in the Twin Cities Tuesday evening, and will continue overnight.
“Temperatures are going to fall back to about 32 overnight, so it will be cold enough for some light snow,” said Shaffer. “Don’t be shocked if you have a little accumulation on the grassy areas. Most of it should melt on contact on the roadways.”
As of 9 p.m. Tuesday, 3.8 inches of snow has been recorded in Rochester, 5.5 inches in Houston County and 8.3 inches in La Crosse, Wis.
The snow will taper and slide off to the east by the time most folks are venturing home, Shaffer said. Expect a quiet, yet cool, day Thursday with some sunshine and a high near 50 degrees.
The National Weather Service (NWS) has canceled all advisories and warning in Minnesota and Wisconsin.
Another storm system is projected on Friday, but it’s expected to be warm enough to be mostly rain.
Although we’re well below average high temperatures during the week, which is 60 degrees, the good news is that the holiday weekend is looking to be warmer.
The even better news is that the average snowfall for the month of May is 0.1 inches. This year, though … who knows?

It’s ironic that the day there’s national buzz about working at Mc Donalds is also a cold day in hell where it’s supposed to snow on April 19th and 20th.

nobody complains when summer-like weather lasts far into october/november or even the rare 50 degree day in december. shut up and get over it, it’s all part of living in MN.
In case you hadn’t noticed complaining about the weather is also a part of living in MN…so don’t “shut up” just get with it!
REALLY ? Was this comment even needed ? I guess someone wanted to feel important today, I hope you feel better ” MO”
Thanks captain obvious. Do you live in MN? Why would we complain about warm days!? Most worthless comment ever lol
At least it won’t last this time of year.
Come on people, quit complaining about a coating of snow! This shouldn’t even be news worthy!!
Such small word with large result
Now a word that brings insult
Oh go away we’ve had enough
Winter’s bite was much too rough
Stop thy flakes from coming down
No more white upon our town
Only sun and April showers
We receive warmly powers
Send the whiteness far away
Not for us on this spring day
Order back the cold rainfall
We are in April, after all!!!
Love it!
