The initial winter storm warning for west central Minnesota was issued on the afternoon of February 27th, while the winter storm warning for the rest of northwest Minnesota was issued early in the morning on February 28th. Therefore this winter storm event covers the end of February into early March. A Colorado Low tracked from northwest Missouri to eastern Wisconsin, while an inverted trough extended back into the Red River Valley. This brought a prolonged period of snow to eastern North Dakota and portions of northwest and west central Minnesota. Many church and school activities were postponed. Sabin and Breckenridge reported 11 inches of snow, Blackduck and Thief River Falls reported 9 inches, and Argyle and Moorhead reported 8.5 inches. For the rest of the warning area, 6 to 8 inches were common. The snow continued into the evening of March 1st, at which point wind speeds also increased. Blizzard conditions were reported from Moorhead to Fergus Falls. More information about the blizzard event can be found later in this month's report.
