The heaviest snow has ended for the metro, the weather service reports, but steady snow will continue across western and central Minnesota.
In the Twin Cities, the morning commute is causing slipping and sliding.
There’s more snow in the forecast, about 1 to 2 inches that could begin falling Monday night and overnight into Tuesday. Travel could be challenging as wet roads may become slick as temperatures fall below freezing.
In fact, the weather service reports, travel is the main impact of this coming round of precipitation.
