It’s back: Winter storm sets sights on Austin

Published 11:28 am Saturday, February 19, 2011

Sorry, Punxsutawney Phil, an early spring isn’t here yet.
A strong winter storm is expected to move through much of Minnesota and could drop a foot and a half of snow in some places.
A winter storm warning is in effect for the Austin area from midnight Sunday through 6 a.m. Monday.
More than six inches of wet, heavy snow is possible. The heaviest snow totals will fall along and south of Interstate 90, with up to 15 inches possible in places.
Snow will be mixed with rain and sleet, and icing could be a problem. A few rumbles of thunder are possible.
