Up to a foot of heavy, wet snow predicted for parts of Minnesota

The forecast is calling for a up to a foot of heavy, wet snow on Wednesday for parts of Minnesota, sending a shudder for all of those who have already swapped their down for spring jackets.

Like it or not, this is spring — Minnesota style. Crocus and daffodil blooms might not fare so well under a blanket of sodden snow, but most trees, shrubs and other plants that are poking up and popping out should live for another spring day. And so will hardy Minnesotans.
