Storm socks Duluth, crashes mount as snow piles up in Twin Cities area

Back-to-back winter storms that battered a large swath of Minnesota for two days have left thousands digging out from a foot or more of snow, particularly in Duluth where more than 17 inches of snow had piled up Monday on Park Point and just south of downtown.

The northern Minnesota city and towns along the North Shore were bracing for another 5 to 7 inches of snow Tuesday before the twin storms were set to wind down by early Wednesday, the National Weather Service said.

The Twin Cities escaped Monday's blast but were not as lucky Tuesday as about 4.9 inches of snow had fallen by 6 p.m. at the Minneapolis-St. Paul airport, the National Weather Service said.
