What Spring? Winter Storm Xyler Will Spread Snow and Colder Temperatures...

• https://weather.com, By Linda Lam

Snow, yes, that white stuff that we'd all rather forget about this time of the year, is on the way from the Dakotas to upstate New York. In some areas this could be one of the heaviest snowfalls so late in the season.

Cooler temperatures are also on the way from the northern Rockies into the northern Plains and Great Lakes as a pattern change will usher in another round of below-average temperatures.

Happening Now

Snow is falling in parts of the southern Minnesota, northern Iowa, western Wisconsin, northern Illinois and southwestern Michigan as of mid-Saturday afternoon. Rain and snow will continue sliding eastward into Saturday evening.

Up to two inches of snow have fallen in northern Illinois, including around a half-inch in Chicago. Heavy snowfall has resulted in snow covered roads and slippery travel in eastern South Dakota and southwestern Minnesota early Saturday. Sioux Falls, South Dakota, has measured 1.5 inches of snow and 2.7 inches was reported near Brookings, South Dakota.
