LIVE UPDATES | Minnesota weather: Light snow early Wednesday; snow covered roads

Accumulating snow has wrapped up after several inches of snow fell Tuesday in the Twin Cities and greater Minnesota. This has made road conditions a bit rough for the morning commute. 

The bulk of the snow wrapped up around 4 a.m. Wednesday. However, a dusting of snow is possible before snowflakes wrap up around 10-11 a.m. on Wednesday in the Twin Cities. Areas north of Interstate 94 picked up between 5–7 inches of snow on Tuesday and early Wednesday, while some areas of the Twin Cities metro received around 4–5 inches of snow.
