Green Bay, WI – A winter storm is sweeping across northern Wisconsin, bringing hazardous travel conditions, snow, and freezing drizzle through Thursday morning. The National Weather Service warns of icy roads and strong winds, which could make driving treacherous.
According to the National Weather Service, the heaviest snowfall is expected across northern Wisconsin, with freezing drizzle possibly creating a light glaze on untreated roads by Thursday morning. Gusty west winds between 30 and 40 mph Thursday afternoon could cause blowing and drifting snow, reducing visibility.
Friday will bring a brief break with mostly sunny skies and a high near 22°F. However, another round of snow is expected Saturday through early Sunday, worsening road conditions again.
Drivers should prepare for slick roads, especially on major highways like I-41 and I-43. High-profile vehicles should take extra caution due to strong crosswinds.
Residents are advised to limit travel, check weather updates frequently, and report snowfall totals or freezing drizzle to local authorities. Stay alert as conditions change rapidly, and prepare for another winter storm this weekend.
