Snow Joke: St. Michael, Albertville Could See New Layer of White

The National Weather Service has issued a hazardous weather outlook for the St. Michael and Albertville area as a weather system makes its way out of the Dakotas and into Minnesota.

St. Michael could see up to 3 inches of new snow by tomorrow, making the 24-hour period (sadly) the second-largest snow event the community has seen this mild winter.

According to the NWS, rain should begin falling in Western Minnesota around 2 p.m., with snow reaching the Twin Cities sometime around evening commute, or later.

Snow will continue through evening hours, with total accumulations between 1 to 3 inches. 

While that's not much, it could make for a frustraiting commute Tuesday morning as many residents head into work, including those who enjoyed the three-day weekend.
