The storm will come in two waves:
Moderate to heavy snow begins Tuesday afternoon & ends Wednesday morning.
A relative lull in the snow is expected during the day Wednesday.
The heaviest snow & blizzard conditions develop late Wednesday afternoon & continue through Thursday

A foot of snow is almost guaranteed area-wide from both waves by the time snow ends Thursday. The Tuesday night/Wednesday morning phase will come as a narrower band of snow, which could miss far-southern MN & north-central MN & thus result in lower storm-total amounts.

I normally don't do 🧵on snow events this far in advance. But the magnitude of this week's looming snow event still looks anywhere from seriously impactful, to potentially epic. Here's an early look at the most likely storm outcomes for Tuesday night through Thursday. ❄️❄️

First the system: This looks like a 2-part system. Two low-pressure waves will ride over the Rockies. Low #1 is likely to trigger a lead wave of snow across southern 1/2 of Minnesota Tuesday PM into Wednesday. Canadian model loop below between noon Tuesday and noon Wednesday.
Wave #2 is bigger and will likely cause more widespread/heavier snow across most of MN Wednesday night through Thursday. Canadian model loop below between 6 pm Wednesday and 6 pm Thursday.

A strong fall storm will impact the Upper Midwest mid to late week - be prepared for heavy rain, thunderstorms, strong winds, and yes - SNOW. #MNwx #WIwx
An early season winter storm is expected within portions of the Dakotas into Minnesota between Thursday and Friday, likely to bring at least minor winter impacts. Impacts are expected to be mainly tied to travel conditions during this timeframe. #ndwx #mnwx
#mnwx perspective:
100 days ago, it was almost 100° warmer than it it today - we had a record high of 75° in Saint Paul, MN on November 6.
