A pretty good, Strong Winter Storm will develop over the area, first starting in Minnesota. then moving into Western Wisconsin. Snow is likely with this system! there is also a chance for Heavy snow. The Models show Snow moving in and becoming heavy for a time. then getting lighter before another wave of snow moves in from the north. Snow will start sometime during the day Saturday Before 12PM. Highs on Saturday will be in the upper teens. By Saturday Night the storm will be here. Moderate to heavy snow will be possible at this time. Lows Saturday night will be in the mid to lower single digits. The Snow will last into Sunday. Winds will also increase Sunday causing areas of blowing snow. Winds may gust to as high as 30MPH on Sunday. Minor to Significant accumulations are looking likely for the area. Total storm amounts I think will range from 4 to 8 inches. but higher amounts are possible. there is a chance that 10 or 11 Inches are possible locally. 

People in the area should prepare for Winter Storm Conditions Including Heavy Snow, strong winds and Moderate to Significant snow accumulations this weekend!!! 

Behind this cold are will then invade. highs will only be in the single digits once again. Wind Chills will be cold too.
