   Mesoscale Discussion 1958
   NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
   1133 AM CST Sun Dec 05 2021

   Areas affected...Northeast Minnesota and far northern Wisconsin.

   Concerning...Heavy snow 

   Valid 051733Z - 052030Z

   SUMMARY...A broad region of moderate snow is expected to continue
   across northeast Minnesota and northern Wisconsin through the
   afternoon with heavy snow in a region of lake enhancement near the
   western shore of Lake Superior.

   DISCUSSION...Moderate snow has been falling for most of the morning
   across northeast Minnesota and far northern Wisconsin. Recently
   heavier snow has developed in St. Louis, Lake, and Cook counties in
   Minnesota where enhancement from Lake Superior has increased
   snowfall rates. Continued east-southeasterly surface flow and
   isentropic ascent is expected to continue through the afternoon with
   similar conditions expected for another 4 to 6 hours. Expect
   snowfall rates around 1 to 1.5 inches per hour across much of the
   region with higher rates possibly over 2 inches per hour where lake
   enhancement is occurring.
