Wednesday Snow to Disrupt Morning and Evening Commutes in SE Minnesota

Last weekend we got a reminder about how quickly snow can make travel difficult and dangerous. The Minnesota State Patrol reported more than 200 traffic crashes including a multi-vehicle pileup that was caught on camera inside the Lowry Bridge in Minneapolis on Saturday.

Southeast Minnesota will get more snow today which will likely create slick roads. Motorists are reminded to slow down and leave plenty of room between them and other vehicles to avoid crashes.

This winter has been a dud for snow lovers. Most of the state is well below average and we’re running out of time. Spring will be here before long.

The Old Farmer’s Almanac has already issued their spring outlook which calls for above average temps and above average precipitation. Hopefully that comes in the form of rain because no one likes an April snowstorm.

Snow is on the way Wednesday.

The National Weather Service in La Crosse, Wisconsin says "The heaviest snow is expected to fall during the day, impacting both the morning and evening commutes, so use caution if on the roads Wednesday!"
