Forecasters expect wet, accumulating snow to begin Tuesday evening, bringing 2 to 5 inches of snowfall to areas including Fond du Lac, Sheboygan, Columbia, Dodge, and Washington counties. Snowfall rates may reach half an inch per hour, leading to slippery and snow-covered roads during the overnight hours.
