There will be an update early this afternoon.

Our revolving door of temperatures has caught up with me and I have one of the (relatively) mild viral bugs that is going around. I'm doing better today but still not 100%.

I won't make any "Cold enough for ya?" cracks this morning, I promise.

Our "snow-maggedon" that turned into a forecast of some light snow ... well, that was even wrong.

Officially, MSP and the NWS in Chanhassen got a 1/2" of snow.

** UPDATE **

Just got back to a computer, battling a migraine. I'll have an update around 9 am tomorrow.

Very light snow across the Twin Cities will end shortly and skies will begin to clear.

How far temperatures drop will depends on how clear it gets. Right now, I'm expecting -3 to -8 for lows.
December 7, 2025 at 3:42 AM
** ADMIN NOTE

Running late due to obligations running long.

No snow accumulating across our region as the storm system has gone much further south.

Full update this evening.

We've gotten about an inch of snow so far with another inch possible this afternoon. It has been just enough to grease up the roads leading to spin-outs and accidents.
