Front yard view February 14th 2012 a winter scene that has been rare this year.

We had ourselves a nice little system last night spread snow across all of Southeastern Minnesota bringing minor accumulations which coated all of the local area, and even much of the region. The snow started just before 12pm in many areas and was ended by late night. The heaviest amounts were seen near the Iowa Boarder which were over 2 inches. The totals slowly tapered down some as you go northward, but it appears like all areas got at least near an inch if not more. The snow was of a wetter nature since the temperature was near 30.F, and just like most wet snowfalls, this snow will not be sticking around long as we rise into the 30s today and near, if not 40.F tomorrow, see my forecast below or check out the NWS for more details.

Snowfall Totals

The highest snowfall total was 2.30″ from Spring Valley and Austin. The least snow reported was from Winona area which only got an inch. There were no reports from Goodhue County.
