The possibility for a foot of snow exists for east central Minnesota and west central Wisconsin. You might want to adjust any travel plans accordingly.

I hope we get dumped on, we need it bad for the lakes and rivers. I would much rather it now then it be in the form of rain in the fall..LET IT SNOW
February 22, 2007 at 7:07 pm #540265Better now than in April or May!
February 22, 2007 at 7:14 pm #540270I heard they bite once in the snow, but that was a blue moon thing
February 22, 2007 at 7:55 pm #540299SWEET! I can use that worthless investment of a snowmobile for a day or two.

I’ll believe it when I see it
February 22, 2007 at 9:25 pm #540338hmmm … weather.com says light wintry mix for lacrosse and we are heading up there for the weekend tomorrow afternoon.
maybe we better take the truck just in case.
better yet, i’d like to talk the fishing partner into going to the big sports show in madison. but i doubt if she would go for that.February 22, 2007 at 9:28 pm #540341Quote:

February 22, 2007 at 10:45 pm #540384This storm looks like its going to have a Double barrel event for southern Minnesota and Iowa with freezing rain Friday some time and after a possible break during Saturday, snow with possibly heavy snow on top the of ice. It wouldn’t be the fishing I’d worry about, it’d be towing a boat if it gets icy.
If you do decide to go some where, drive careful.
WarrenMNFebruary 22, 2007 at 10:47 pm #540388I don’t know. They are really hyping this one which usually translates into a big dud. We shall see.

February 22, 2007 at 11:01 pm #540405I also hear that there is another (bigger) storm in the works that is 5-8 days out.
I’ve been tricked before so I will not get my hopes up and will wait til it happens before I let loose with

I think they are hyping it because we haven’t had any significant snow since New Year’s Eve.
Those weather people seem to get all excited when they actually get to forecast something.
February 23, 2007 at 12:33 am #540451I know how to prevent it. I’ll just go out and drop 500 bucks on a new snowblower. Guarantee it won’t snow.
February 23, 2007 at 2:05 am #540501Better yet go get buy a Snowmobile that will guarantee no snow.

February 23, 2007 at 2:42 am #540518I’m not changing any of my plans. I do not trust these guys one bit. I bet we end up with 2-4 inches with scattered spots with heavier and lighter amounts.
I hope we get a bunch for the moisture, but I’m not holding my breath.
February 23, 2007 at 2:51 am #540525Report for Isle is snow showers, and 1-4″.
I was hoping to get snowed in at Hook’s house.

I better board the windows up. Does anyone know if the grocery stores still have canned food and bottled water left in stock?
I thought it was funny last night when Barriero was talking about Paul Douglas describing the storm this weekend. Paul Douglas said it may resemble the storms of the 70’s. Maybe I’m mistaken because I was born in ’80, but I have to agree with Barreiro and say that I’ve seen 6-12 inches of blowing snow in my lifetime.
