Calm Before The Storm

Things are slightly warmer than they have been over the past few days - temperatures are creeping up to average and we've seen a little more sunshine. We'll go through a major change soon, tomorrow clouds will increase and the chance for rain and snow increases as a new low pressure system slowly crawls in. Here's a timeline for what's expected over the next few days.
And this system will take it's time to head out of here... slowly exiting by Tuesday afternoon. Like Aaron said - this storm looks pretty impressive... and this model is still holding onto the potential for a foot of snow in some places... that tan area along the ND-SD border is supposed to be 18-20 inches... the blues are 8-12 inches... the greens are 4-6 inches... it's really not looking good for areas that are already experiencing flooding problems. This is going to be a very wet snow and I'm thinking that a lot of slush will be on the ground since it's had some time to thaw already this year.
