The snowfall in SE Minnesota may affect the trip of Friday night

The snow is expected to move on Friday afternoon, starting from Southeast Minnesota and Northeast Iowa before spreading to Western Wisconsin.

The weather is not great, as the worst snow can fall during the evening trip, with some areas seeing a snowfall of 1 inch per hour, which means that the roads can become rapid quickly and visibility can be bad.

The current forecasts show that the Rochester area has a 63% chance of getting two or more inchs of snow. The further we go, the greater the likelihood of more than two inches of snow.

Most of the Western Wisconsin has an 85-90% chance of getting at least two inches of snow on Friday, with some areas probably seeing more than four inches. If you have to travel, be prepared for snowy roads and take extra care on highways such as the Interstate 90 and Highway 61.

Roads can remain snowy and slippery for most of the weekend, so reaching events or ordering can take extra time.
