A well advertised winter storm dropped a narrow area of nearly 13 inches of snow from Lake City MN to Durand WI, northeast to Eau Claire to Augusta. This storm
moved from Colorado, into the Upper Midwest from Thursday evening, February 23rd, through Friday evening, February 24th. This storm system was advertised almost seven days in advance to be a potent winter storm that had the potential of a foot or more of snow.  Different scenarios of where the heaviest snow would fall, even as soon as 12 hours before the storm developed, made this event extremely hard to predict.
Once the snow bands developed across far southern Minnesota the evening of Thursday, February 23rd, the forecast narrowed the snow line farther southeast across southern Minnesota and into west central Wisconsin. This system produced two rounds of snow. First, a band of snow developed across far southern Minnesota, and moved slowly northeast toward Lake City, Ellsworth, and into Menomonie and Eau Claire by midnight.  This band of snow continued until Friday morning before moving northeast across northern Wisconsin. A secondary band of snow developed Friday morning and continued through the evening as the upper level part of the storm moved across the Upper Midwest.
Some of the higher totals included Stockholm with 13 inches, Augusta 12 inches, Hager City 11 inches, Elk Mound 10 inches, and Eau Claire 9 inches.
