The Twin Cities is forecast to receive 1-3 inches (higher amounts south), while the bullseye, if you will, is along a corridor from just east of Mankato through Red Wing and Eau Claire.
Winds will be light, so the NWS isn't anticipating any blowing and drifting issues. But snow on the roads coupled with cold temps will cause some slick driving conditions.
Here's a look at the radar simulation from the HRRR model. It shows snow reaching the Twin Cities by about 1-2 p.m. and lasting through the evening.
