Persistent snow falls midday and Sunday afternoon. A cold front passes, so temperatures fall from 30 degrees in the morning to the low 20s by the end of the afternoon. A few more inches will fall by the start of pre-Super Bowl activities and broadcasts. Families must remain careful traveling to and from sports restaurants and Super Bowl parties.
