The color chart to the right of the loop refers to the strength of the signal that returns to the radar, not to the amount of snow.

Eastern Minnesota could see some periods of light snow on Monday.

Daytime temps are expected to stay below zero over much of northern Minnesota on Monday, with some single digits above zero in the south.

Single digit high temps will be common across Minnesota on Tuesday, but many spots will see highs in the 20s on Wednesday:
