City Of Minnetonka: Mild Weather Follows Winter Storm

Press release from the City of Minnetonka:

12/10/2021 4:42 p.m.

The first winter storm of the season dropped a half foot of snow across much of the west metro including Minnetonka. Areas south and east of the city saw much heavier snowfall.

City crews worked throughout Saturday to plow streets. Citywide snow removal occurs with two or more inches of snow accumulation. Bare pavement is not the goal of city snow removal efforts. Roads are cleared and then treated to promote melting of any remaining snow.

Snow removal on sidewalks and trails takes approximately three days. Operations typically begin at 5 a.m.

Mild weather is forecast to follow this storm with temperatures reaching into the 50s by midweek.
