A small, but potent April snowstorm walloped Minnesota and Wisconsin with heavy snow this week, a continuation of the harsh 2013-2014 season in the region.
The storm emerged from the northern Rockies Tuesday night and quickly developed into an energetic spring snowstorm on Wednesday.
"An April snowstorm in Minnesota and northern Wisconsin is not unusual, but the amount of snow that fell is quite rare," AccuWeather Senior Meteorologist Brett Anderson said.
A trained NWS spotter reported the most snow from the storm in Isanti, Minn., where 19 inches piled up.
Insanti, Minn., was in a 50-mile-wide swath of heavy snow that extended from central Minnesota into northwestern Wisconsin. A foot or more of snow was widely reported in this heavy swath.
