Here’s this evening’s WashPost forecast. Safe travels!

Then there’s the snow. Snow is predicted across most of South Dakota by daybreak Saturday, spreading into northern and western Nebraska during the afternoon as cold air filters into the region amid a tightening temperature battleground beneath the storm. Recent periods of unusually mild air could make it hard for the snow to stick initially.

Snow is then likely to make it to eastern North Dakota and Minnesota on Saturday evening, becoming heavy overnight into Sunday. The long-duration snowstorm is expected to rage in northeastern Nebraska and the Dakotas on Sunday, walloping western and northern Minnesota. Minneapolis proper may dodge the snow, as snow bands pinwheel to the north of the city.

A widespread 10 to 12-plus inches is expected for much of northern Nebraska, particularly north of Highways 20 and 275. Similar snowfall amounts are also predicted for a large chunk of the Dakotas and Minnesota. The storm should be accompanied by progressively higher winds as it intensifies, blowing and drifting the snow.

Snow looks to wind down west to east on Monday.
