   Mesoscale Discussion 2028
   NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
   0406 AM CST Wed Dec 14 2022

   Areas affected...northeast MN and extreme northwest WI

   Concerning...Heavy snow 

   Valid 141006Z - 141500Z

   SUMMARY...Moderate to heavy snow will spread north into northeast MN
   and far northwest WI through the early morning hours. Snowfall rates
   near 1 inch per hour are expected.

   DISCUSSION...A band of moderate to heavy snow will lift northward
   from central MN into northeast MN and extreme northwest WI over the
   next few hours. This area of snow is developing along an area of
   increasing 700 mb frontogenesis and midlevel warm advection as a
   midlevel low over eastern NE pivots northeast. Strong ascent through
   a deep saturated profile and a dendritic growth layer around 2500
   feet deep will result in efficient snowfall rates around 1 inch per
   hour. Some localized, brief rates near 2 inches an hour will be
   possible within mesoscale bands through the early morning hours.
