Sunday snow likely will turn to rain overnight, melting Minnesota's big snowstorm

The Twin Cities was expecting the biggest snowfall of the year Sunday - almost a foot of it.

But it might not look like much Monday because snow is likely turn into rain in the morning.

"It'll melt and compact the snow, so people that do measure it in the morning after the night of snowfall will probably not measure 6 to 11 inches," said Caleb Grunzke, a meteorologist with the National Weather Services in Chanhassen. "It'll look like a lot less."

In some cases, the rain could melt all the freshly fallen snow in southern Minnesota, he said.
