Flaky February: Twin Cities about to set snowfall record for the month
February 19, 2019 at 2:09PM
So far this month, the Twin Cities has had 22.6 inches of snow. Toss in most of what's coming in the next day or two, and we're sure to bury the previous record of 26.5 inches set in 1962.
And we're not done yet for the shortest month of the year, according to NWS meteorologist Alexandra Keclik.
"It's possible" the metro area will surpass the 30-inch mark, Keclik said. "There is another [storm] system Friday through the weekend."
As for temperatures leading up to the weekend, below average is the theme, with highs no better than the mid-20s, the NWS is forecasting. Reaching 32 on Saturday is a definite maybe.
