Snow likely tonight; 1 to 3 inches by daybreak Sunday

The snow-making system that has been showing up on the computer models since midweek is just beginning to show mixed precipitation in North Dakota.  The most recent short term model output continues the trend of lighter amounts, with no clear bulls-eye of heavy accumulation.

A light accumulation is possible with another weak weather system traveling across northern Minnesota on Sunday.

Cooler temperatures are in store for Sunday before another moderation begins on Monday.
