Take a deep breath because we will not be getting a major snowstorm or even enough snow to make a big impact on our week. However, we'll get our first brief glimpse into winter.

However, it is still noteworthy because it is in the forecast for the Duluth area as we speak, according to the National Weather Service of Duluth.

Their outlook for the week says we can expect light rain and snow mix Tuesday night (October 22nd) into Wednesday morning.

Midweek, it will be like it never happened, with that round of precipitation ending on Wednesday. It also looks like the rain / snow mix will only impact us overnight and not into our morning commutes.

The more noticeable change this will bring to the Northland is average temperatures! We've been well-above average as of late and it looks like it will finally feel like fall after this round of rain.

As of now, it doesn't look like this snow will even be measurable so enjoy a nice drop-off in temperatures and the beautiful fall weather while we have it. Eeeeeeek!
