Messy election day; first solid, prolonged freeze this week
Cast one weather vote for early voting. I expect a messy election day from Minnesota to New England, to Atlanta. A wrapped up storm system races east Tuesday. The system brings rain and snow to Minnesota. Widespread rain and even some severe weather will rumble across the eastern U.S.
Here's NOAA's GFS model from 7 am to 7 pm CDT Tuesday.
In Minnesota, we can expect a rain-snow mix. Snow will accumulate up north.

It's a good time to think about getting through another Upper Midwest winter safely. This is winter weather awareness week in Minnesota and Wisconsin.
Hard freeze
No more frost just nipping around the edges. Our inbound air mass brings a solid prolonged freeze to all of Minnesota this week. Did you get those hose bibs drained and shut off yet?
So far I don't see any big snows in sight just yet.
Stay tuned.
