The heaviest snowfall rates should occur from 12 PM to 4 PM CST. DISCUSSION...A band of snow within the Upper Midwest has produced generally light to moderate snowfall rates from southwestern Minnesota into far northwest Wisconsin. Recent observations within the last hour near the Twin Cities indicate snowfall rates of 1 inch per hour are occurring. This broad area of snow is being driven by 850-700 mb frontogenesis. Through the afternoon, the upper trough over the northern Plains is expected to become more negatively tilted as it progresses into the Upper Midwest and Great Lakes regions. At the surface, a low currently in northwest Missouri should track northeastward and deepen. This should act to increase the frontogenetic forcing and lead to snowfall rates of 1 inch per hour, particularly within locally heavier snow bands. Heavier snowfall rates will move from southwest to northeast along with the better low/mid-level ascent from about 12 PM to 4 PM CST. ...Wendt.. 11/29/2022 ....Please see https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://www.spc.noaa.gov__;!!DZ3fj= g!8juwxVDWtVMQKLxpvGvDdao0xreUFOR2Ah6XD8NTmsPN1mg9BaK0p4TENJ6B5FOEIx0K68jCn= bu0dcN2mNukK6LkDtE$ for graphic product...
