Yet another winter storm, in spring.
Everyone in the greater Twin Cities metro area of Minneapolis and Saint Paul metro area of Minnesota, and the rest of Minnesota is hoping that this is the final winter storm and final round of snow for the season.
A powerful winter storm dumped another half of a foot of heavy wet snow in the south metro area of Dakota County.
Even the crews at the Minneapolis International Airport had to go back to winter mode to de-ice airplanes this evening.
