The Tuesday storm that dropped over a foot of snow in some areas was on the charts for over a week. With the track moving and moving, it finally had an area where it wanted to hit, and that was Minnesota. Original forecasts on Sunday afternoon were way off from what actually fell in the area, but that’s why forecasts that are a few days out are less accurate than the night before or the day of. Below are some of the bigger totals across the metro area, along with a map from the National Weather Service with the central Minnesota numbers. The full list of totals from the NWS is below.
At or over a foot of snow in Bloomington, Golden Valley, Minneapolis, Stillwater, Prior Lake, and Lakeville, just to name a few.

Notice the pink color over the south and south-east metro; those were the areas that got over 10” of snow. The further west you go the lesser amounts you get.
EVEN A RECORD-BREAKER:
The Tuesday part of the storm, which was officially 8.8″ at MSP, broke the old daily snowfall record of 6.2″ set back in 1983.
Remember, you can always send us the totals in your backyard or pictures from the storm at [email protected].
