A significant snowstorm is taking aim at Minnesota today and all of the state is under a Winter Weather Advisory for both the heavy snow and possible freezing precipitation.

The highest snow totals will target central Minnesota, with many areas seeing a chance at 4 to 6 inches, with isolated higher amounts. It is probable this storm will set daily snowfall records for many locations, including the Twin Cities.
