Some ups and downs to temperatures are coming over the next couple of days. Today will bring blustery northwest winds of 20 to 30 mph, which will produce some patchy blowing snow, especially near and east of Interstate 29. Arctic chill settles across the area tonight, but a one day warming is on the way for Wednesday. Unfortunately, well below normal temperatures return Thursday, and will hang around into early next week.
After snowfall ends, northwest winds will increase and become a gusty 20 to 30 mph. With recent fluffy snowfall, considerable drifting snow will occur. More wind-prone and exposed areas, especially near and east of I-29, can expect patchy blowing snow and some brief visibility reductions later this morning and afternoon. Bottom line – dangerous travel conditions could persist in many areas through this afternoon.
