Minneapolis, MN – A fresh coating of light snow is expected across much of Minnesota overnight into Sunday morning, according to the National Weather Service Twin Cities. The heaviest snow is forecast to fall late Saturday into early Sunday, bringing 1 to 2.5 inches across central and eastern parts of the state, including the Twin Cities and western Wisconsin.

According to the latest update issued at 3:30 p.m. Saturday, southerly winds could gust up to 30 mph, creating occasional blowing snow and reduced visibility, especially in open and rural areas. The light but widespread snowfall is expected to move from west to east overnight.

While snowfall amounts remain modest, NWS forecasters caution that breezy conditions may lead to slippery roads and brief travel disruptions early Sunday. Areas from St. Cloud to Eau Claire are expected to see the highest totals, while southern Minnesota may see less than an inch.

Temperatures will remain in the teens overnight, with wind chills dipping below zero in some spots. Drivers are urged to allow extra travel time and monitor local forecasts for updates.
