Central and Northern Minnesota had an early taste of snow over the last 24 hours. Personally, I love it -- but I understand the disdain as well. Here are some totals from around the state.

• St. Cloud:  0.5 inches
• Kimball:  1.0 inches
• Alexandria:  1.0 inches
• Detroit Lakes:  1.8 inches

The forecast for St. Cloud calls for more chances of light snow everyday through this weekend. No real accumulation is expected (which may or may not be good news for you). But I say...

Pray for snow!
