Episode narrativeepisode_narrativeAfter being hit by heavy snow December 18 and 19, southeast Minnesota was impacted by another winter storm December 20 through 21. Highest snowfall amounts were generally 4 to 7 inches, with specific reports of 7.6 inches at Preston (Fillmore County), 7.0 inches near Rochester International Airport (Olmsted County) and 6.3 inches at Grand Meadow (Mower County).||Northwest winds gusting to 30 to 40 mph in the wake of an arctic cold front produced near white-out conditions, along with 2 to 4 foot drifts. In addition to the wind and snow, sharply falling temperatures resulted in bitterly cold wind chills of 20 below to 40 below, which lingered into December 22.||Due to several in a series of snow-producing systems, December 2008 would turn out to be the third snowiest December on record in Rochester, with a total of 28.6 inches. The all-time December snowfall record in Rochester remained at 35.3 inches, which was established in 2000.
