For the Winter Storm Watch, from Saturday evening through Monday afternoon. IMPACTS...Travel could be very difficult to impossible. Areas of blowing snow could significantly reduce visibility. The hazardous conditions could impact the Friday morning and evening commutes. Strong winds could cause tree damage. PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS... Slow down and use caution while traveling. Visit 511wi.gov for road conditions. Monitor the latest forecasts for updates on this situation.

...BLOWING SNOW POSSIBLE THIS MORNING WITH A MAJOR WINTER STORM FOR LATER THIS WEEKEND... .Light snow, combined with increasing winds, could lead to blowing snow and travel impacts across northern into central Wisconsin this morning. These impacts lessen during the afternoon. A second winter storm could approach historic levels as a large band of 12 to 18 inches of snow falls across the region with localized amounts up to 24 inches. The main uncertainty in the forecast is exactly where this band sets up with the highest confidence currently between the Twin Cities and Rochester in southeast Minnesota and along and north of the I-94 corridor in western Wisconsin. There will be a relatively sharp gradient in snow amounts on the southern side of the snow band over northeast Iowa and southwest Wisconsin. In addition to the heavy snow, winds increase Sunday afternoon into Monday morning, with gusts of 35 to 50 mph. These winds could lead to widespread blowing and drifting of snow and blizzard conditions, especially west of the Mississippi River. Regardless of exact snow amounts, expect widespread major travel impacts regionwide with some roads possibly becoming impassable.
