Well we are certainly in a very active weather pattern, it looks like we've got another one coming - of course with these quick systems we only see 1-3 inches generally. So they are almost a pain for shovelers - it's pretty much every 2 or 3 days we get another 2 inches or so. Brookings and Huron seem to be a target lately - so don't be shocked if you see some more locally heavy snow from this system. The good news is that this snow will be relatively light in nature just hanging around from after dinner time on Monday through the noon hour on Tuesday.
The great thing about this system is that Tuesday will have southerly winds so we'll warm things up just a bit for Tuesday. But as quickly as we'll warm things up, we'll get another blast of cold air. Rollercoaster ride of temperatures since we'll see another warm up just in time for Christmas. And no incredibly large systems are expected to push through Christmas Eve or Christmas Day for travelers, although the weekend after doesn't look as hot. We'll see how things shape up as we get closer to then.

Is the snow still on track for Tuesday? I have to do some travelling to Minnesota. Thanks for your help.
Snow's already on the way, it's currently snowing in Mobridge, the system will push through tonight and into tomorrow morning. By noon, most of the snow should be out of our area and pushing into Minnesota. We'll just see flurries after that. If you are traveling to Minnesota in the afternoon and evening hours, your drive should be okay if you are driving in the South, but around the Marshall area, there's more accumulating snow expected, so plows may delay your travels a bit.
