This Hazardous Weather Outlook is for north-central and northeast
Wisconsin.

.DAY ONE...Tonight

Moderate to heavy snow will fall along and south of Highway 29,
with accumulations of 5 to 7 inches expected. Lighter snow and
lower accumulations are expected farther north, with amounts
tapering to around an inch near the Upper Michigan border. Snow
covered roads and reduced visibilities will result in hazardous
travel conditions, except across the far north. Locations that
receive heavy snow in central and east central Wisconsin could
experience sporadic tree damage and power outages, especially when
winds increase late tonight.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...Wednesday through Tuesday

Snow will steadily diminish from west to east early Wednesday
morning, but north winds gusting to 30 to 35 mph may result in
drifting snow in open areas. The Wednesday morning commute will
still be impacted in some areas, especially in east central
Wisconsin, where light snow may still be falling. Untreated
secondary roads and open areas susceptible to drifting snow
will also be a concern.

Wind chills could drop to 10 below to 30 below zero Friday night
into Saturday morning, and again Saturday night into Sunday
morning.

.SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...

Spotters are requested to forward snowfall measurements to the
National Weather Service in Green Bay Wednesday morning.
