The winter weather, here sooner than any of us would like. Dan . 1anx lets bring in meteorologist dave dahl from minneapolis st. Paul. A part of the country that is directly in the bullseye. Dave, how much snow is this storm going to deliver . Its going to create the most snow so far this season. Of course the first significant snowfall. Its going to affect travel from montana, and across the dakotas and in minnesota, 6 to 12 inches could fall. Even here in the twin cities. Maybe as much as a foot and a half in the northern portions of wisconsin. A foot and a half, no joke. The bigger story is behind the snow. Absolutely. We are going to see the temperatures tumble tomorrow. Here in the upper midwest, we will have the freezing temps. The cold push, the plunge is going to go down the southeastern part of the country. Thursday, we are talking temps in the 30s all the way to the east coast. Arctic plunge sounds uncomfortable. But we thank you very much, dave dahl. Youre very welcome.
