First Big Snow of the Year Coming for Minnesota

Depending on where you are in Minnesota, there's not much happening tomorrow and Wednesday, a "Winter Weather Advisory," "Winter Storm Warning," or "Blizzard" coming.

Right now, there's a map on a Weather Service page for Duluth, Minnesota, showing some of the areas involved:

¹ I didn't include the link that the National Weather Service had, to their 'new and improved' page.

That link, that goes with the words "available here" is to http://www.nws.noaa.gov/alerts-beta/mn.php?x=1.

When I tried it, I was redirected to this:

"Error loading stylesheet: An unknown error has occurred
"(805303f4)http://www.weather.gov/alerts-beta/capatom.xsl"

Oh, well. Maybe you've got the sort of system they had in mind.
