...HEAVY SNOW FALLING IN NORTH-CENTRAL AND PORTIONS OF CENTRAL

WISCONSIN...



At midnight, the large precipitation shield from a major winter

storm continued to spread north across Wisconsin. The northern

edge of the precipitation extended from near Eagle River to Iron

Mountain. The precipitation will continue to surge north,

spreading across the remainder of northern Wisconsin by 130 am.



The northern portion of the precipitation shield was falling as

snow, which was heavy at times. 



Meanwhile farther south, temperatures were warmer over central and

east-central Wisconsin, resulting in rain in these areas. The

rain/snow line extended from near Marshfield to Wittenberg to

Oconto to Crivitz. The rain/snow line is expected to slowly

advance northwest during the next few hours.



Areas in central and east-central Wisconsin that receive rain 

could see some ponding of water in low spots on roads, especially 

in urban areas where storm sewer grates may be obstructed by

remaining leaves.



Travel conditions in areas receiving snow will continue to

deteriorate overnight. Gusty northeast winds are also expected to

develop in these areas, resulting in some blowing and drifting of

the snow as well. Anyone traveling across northern Wisconsin 

tonight should use extra caution, and allow for a considerably

slower than normal trip.
