Heavy Snow in Southern Itasca, Minnesota

Snowfall totals of 6 to 9 inches were received across the southern part of Itasca County with a high report of 9.1 inches near Coleraine.

A prolonged snowfall event occurred across northeastern Minnesota beginning the morning of the 21st and lasting into the late evening hours of the 22nd and early morning hours of the 23rd. A strong area of low pressure moved from the Central Plains into the Mid-Mississippi Valley during this time period leading to multiple waves of snow that affected the Northland. Most of the region received at least 6 inches of accumulation by the time the storm ended with many areas receiving upwards of 1 foot of accumulation by the time snow ended. The highest total came from near Isle where 19.8 inches piled up in a little over 24 hours.
