NEXT Weather: 5:30 a.m. report for Minnesota from March 19, 2025
The trajectory of a spring snowstorm headed for Minnesota shifted overnight, leaving the Twin Cities free and clear. Southern Minnesota, however, could still see blizzard conditions.
Parts of southeastern and south-central Minnesota, in fact, are under a blizzard warning, including Rochester and Albert Lea. Blowing snow could lead to whiteout conditions across that region. The storm should hit the state before 8 a.m., continuing into the afternoon before eventually petering out. Accumulations in affected areas could still be impressive.
Expect clouds and windy conditions in the metro, with a high right around 40.
Over the next few days, we'll return to sunny skies and above average temperatures.
The weekend could bring more light snow.
