Winter storm may be blowing into Minnesota

(Andrew Krueger/Minnesota AP) – If you’re not ready for winter yet, the forecast for Halloween could be looking a bit scary for parts of Minnesota.
A winter storm watch is in effect from Thursday morning through Thursday afternoon… with the line moving from Staples east to include Duluth and the Twin Cities.
The National Weather Service says low pressure moving into northwest Wisconsin may change rain to snow with accumulations of several inches. However, there’s still a lot of uncertainty over where the heaviest snow will fall, how much will fall and how much the warm ground may cut down on accumulations.
Some slushy snow is possible in St. Cloud and the Twin Cities late Wednesday night into early Thursday.
Mark Ewens and KNOX Radio will have updates as the afternoon progresses. This week is North Dakota Winter Weather Awareness Week.
