Farther north, the precipitation will be in the form of rain, sleet, freezing rain or light snow.

The precipitation will taper off on Wednesday with mainly light rain, mixed with light snow across central and west-central Minnesota. Wednesday night, another area of steadier precipitation will affect west-central Wisconsin where a few inches of snow will occur.
