The coastal Carolinas may experience flash floods in the coming days due to repeated thunderstorms.

Overview
|
Snow spread across the Midwest Thursday afternoon through Friday (February 8-9, 2018). Southern Wisconsin was on the northern periphery of the swath of snow. Snowfall amounts ranged from up to 2 inches near Fond du Lac and Montello to 4 to 9 inches near the Illinois border. There were multiple bands of snow that tracked through the area during the overnight hours. This led to localized areas of higher snowfall totals. |
 These amounts are approximate. They are based on actual snowfall reports, but augmented with computer model output. |
Radar:
Snow spread into southern Wisconsin Thursday evening and tapered off across southeast Wisconsin Friday morning.
