  Forecasters say a snowstorm could make Thanksgiving travel a mess in parts of the Upper Midwest.

At least 6 inches (15 centimeters) of snow is expected to begin falling Tuesday afternoon south of Interstate 94, followed by strong winds on Wednesday.

National Weather Service meteorologist Brent Hewett says Wednesday morning “is not looking great for travel.”

Meteorologists say another winter storm could develop after Thanksgiving into the weekend. But they say it’s too soon to tell whether that system will bring rain, snow or a mix.
