Today in Fargo-Moorhead: Hazardous road conditions, Dilworth police chief offer and Detroit Lakes beer
The roads are icy in the Red River Valley. Be careful when driving. The winter weather advisory remains until 7 p.m.
Heading into tomorrow, we’ll take a breather from the snow — until flakes are like to fall on Friday. Wednesday’s high is a partly sunny 26 degrees.
Here are snowfall totals from around Minnesota and neighboring states, as reported through 12:30 p.m. Tuesday (snow was still falling across the region on Tuesday, so these are not necessarily final totals.)
