Thursday snow potential for Twin Cities metro

Wednesday will be the last mild day in the Twin Cities for a while, with clouds and patchy fog and drizzle. 

Light drips on Wednesday night will make for slippery surfaces after we practically flash-freeze after midnight. Those plunging temperatures after midnight will glaze over the roads into Thursday morning's commute, just as snow showers roll in to slow us down. 

The National Weather Service has issued a Winter Weather Advisory for the Twin Cities metro for 1"-3" of snow with a narrow band of 4”-6”+ somewhere in the watch zone possible. 

A sample snow potential from early tomorrow morning through early tomorrow morning through early afternoon shows a general 1-3” in the metro, but a NARROW and heavier band could bring 3”-6” just east/southeast of the metro.
