Not that I expect to need it this weekend, but I got the snowblower out yesterday, and cleaned it up and got it all ready to go.
From the National Weather Service this morning: A major winter storm is expected to impact the Dakotas starting tonight. We may see some lighter accumulations into western Minnesota Friday night, while snow showers Saturday will bring most of us our first sight of snowflakes this season, though with minimal accumulations.
Pete Hanson is on 98.1 Minnesota’s New Country weekday mornings from 5:30 to 10:00.
