Imagine a meat locker, where it's snowing. That's what appears to be heading toward the Twin Cities Sunday into Monday.

While you may have been bracing for the double-digit subzero temperatures that could close schools next week, you might not be quite ready for the shoveling that's coming just before.

The most recent forecast put out Friday afternoon by the Twin Cities National Weather Service office calls for 5 to 9 inches Sunday into Monday with higher totals possible in spots.
