Duluth, MN – A light wintry mix is expected across parts of Minnesota and northwest Wisconsin tonight, potentially leading to slick roads.
According to the National Weather Service (NWS) in Duluth, there is a 20-60% chance of rain, freezing rain, and snow. The highest risk is from the Brainerd Lakes area into northwest Wisconsin. Some locations in northwest Wisconsin have a 10-20% chance of accumulating ice.
Total precipitation amounts are expected to stay below half an inch, but even a light glaze of ice could create hazardous travel conditions. Temperatures will range from 26°F to 33°F, keeping conditions cold enough for freezing rain in some areas.
Drivers should use caution and be prepared for slick spots, especially on bridges and overpasses. Residents should check forecasts frequently, as conditions may shift overnight. If possible, delay travel until roads improve.
