Southern Wisconsin Braces for Quick Snow Burst Tonight

Update about Snow:

According to the NWS, locations east of Interstate 90 and north of Interstate 94 have the best chance of receiving up to one inch. The system will produce drier snow, moving northwest to southeast between 6 and 8 p.m. The snow accumulation will slow after 1 a.m., with flurries predicted to last until mid-morning Thursday.

Travel to be Avoided:

Travel consequences are modest, but vehicles should use caution on untreated roads, especially overnight. The snowfall coincides with nighttime traffic hours, so prepare for potentially slower journeys.

The NWS recommends that folks keep an eye on updated forecasts as weather conditions change. Flurries may linger in some locations throughout Thursday morning. While snowfall totals are low, this system serves as a warning to be prepared for the winter season. Carry an emergency kit in your vehicle and allow additional travel time if required. Southern Wisconsin residents should expect chilly but controllable weather when this cyclone passes through late Thursday morning. Pay attention to local updates for any changes in snowfall forecasts or travel advisories.
