Snowiest Week of the Year?

Snow lovers in Minnesota can hardly contain themselves as two significant snowstorms, nearly back-to-back, appear headed for the Twin Cities. For some background on the possibilities, check out the video we did with Tom Novak. Happy storm watching!

Prospects for a snowy Vikings game appear to be dimming according to virtually all forecasters as of Friday night, meaning nostalgia may have to take a back seat to reality. The latest:

WCCO: Models pushing precipitation a little farther south. There will be fairly significant accumulation... just a matter of how far north.

KSTP: The track of this snow seems to be south of the metro.

Fox:  As we head into our Vikings Monday we're still due for some snow. How much has yet to be determined as the storm still hasn't materialized just yet

KARE: Still a plethora of scenarios for this next system, so stay tuned. We could just get a little snow or several inches for some spots.

Star Tribune: Mostly cloudy with a growing potential of some snow accumulations south

MPR/Paul Huttner: The latest models are hinting at the potential for snow next Monday into Tuesday. Stay tuned...it's too early to make a call yet.

NWS: Chance of snow on Monday is 40%. Potential for significant snow accumulations is still there for south central and west central Minnesota.
