This Hazardous Weather Outlook is for southwest Minnesota and east
central South Dakota.

.DAY ONE...Today and tonight.

A late-winter system continues to move through the region this
morning bringing periods of rain, wet snowfall, and wintry mix.

Snowfall totals will be light, from a trace to a half an inch of wet
snow along and north of Highway 14.

Rainfall amounts will vary between 0.25"-0.50". In addition, a
combination of sleet and freezing rain will lead to icing
accumulations between 0.10" to 0.20" of an inch through late morning
mainly across east-central SD and southwestern MN.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...Friday through Wednesday.

A second strong system will bring additional periods of rain,
accumulating snowfall, and wintry mix to the region from Friday into
Saturday.

While a couple inches of snow will be possible north of a Chamberlain
to Madison to Marshall, MN line; the main concern continues to be in
the potential for widespread icing north of I-90. Make sure to follow
your local forecast for updates.

.SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...

Spotter activation is not expected at this time.
