A winter storm warning has been issued for the Twin Cities and a large area of Greater Minnesota ahead of heavy snow overnight – and some school districts are announcing delayed starts and e-learning days.
Up to six inches of snow is expected in the warning area, including the Twin Cities, Duluth , St. Cloud , Brainerd, Alexandria and Moorhead.
Residents have been warned to expect a difficult commute due to “accumulating snow, gusty winds, and reduced visibility.”
