By Sunday afternoon, much of the area will switchover to snow with wind gusts increasing to 35 to 55 mph. This will result in widespread visibilities reductions to 1/4 mile or less at times where the Blizzard Warning is in effect. Storm total snow accumulations will likely approach all-time records in north-central Wisconsin with 18 to 36 inches of snow expected north of Interstate 94. Travel will be impossible for much of the area throughout the storm. Any travel should be reserved for emergencies only. Power outages and tree damage will be possible with the combination of heavy snow, ice, and increasing winds on Sunday. * WHAT...For the Winter Weather Advisory, freezing rain expected.

Winter Storm Watch
...MAJOR WINTER STORM SATURDAY NIGHT INTO MONDAY MORNING... .A prolonged, high-impact winter storm will impact the region from Saturday night through Monday morning. Highest snow totals in excess of 12 to 18 inches are favored north of Interstate 90 with some locales north of Highway 10 approaching 24 inches. Along Interstate 90, a wintry mix of snow, freezing rain, and sleet makes it difficult to pin down exact snow and ice amounts, but impacts are warranting of a winter storm warning. Across northeast Iowa and southwest Wisconsin, snow does not look to arrive until Sunday afternoon, so the winter storm watch is maintained until further details can be ascertained. Increasing winds Sunday afternoon and night should result in whiteout conditions for exposed locales and an upgrade to a blizzard warning is likely once the exact threat area is determined. Regardless of exact snow amounts, expect major travel impacts regionwide with some roads possibly impassable, especially in wind-prone areas. * WHAT...Heavy snow possible. Total snow accumulations between 3 and 6 inches possible. Winds could gust as high as 55 mph and may result in blizzard conditions later Sunday into Monday morning. * WHERE...In Iowa, Floyd, Chickasaw, Clayton, and Fayette Counties. In Wisconsin, Grant County. * WHEN...From Sunday afternoon through Monday afternoon. * IMPACTS...Travel could be very difficult to impossible. Widespread blowing snow could significantly reduce visibility. The hazardous conditions could impact the Monday morning commute. Gusty winds could bring down tree branches, especially those coated in ice.

Winter Weather Advisory
...A QUICK HITTING BAND OF HEAVY SNOW TONIGHT WILL LEAD TO SLIPPERY TRAVEL CONDITIONS... .A band of snow develops across northeast Iowa into southwest Wisconsin this evening and lasts through the overnight, departing around sunrise. The snow will be heavy at times with rates exceeding 1" per hour and quickly lead to snow-covered and slippery roads. The heaviest snow is forecast to fall in a relatively narrow band with amounts quickly decreasing on either side of the band, making this snowfall forecast on the challenging side. Any small changes to the placement of the snow band could change forecast snow amounts at a given location very quickly. * WHAT...Snow with total accumulations between 2 and 5 inches. A narrow corridor of 6 inches is possible within the advisory, but confidence in its placement is low at this time. * WHERE...Portions of northeast Iowa and central, southwest, and west central Wisconsin. * WHEN...From 8 PM this evening to 6 AM CST Friday. * IMPACTS...Plan on slippery road conditions.

The highest snowfall totals will be on grassy surfaces.
Special Weather Statement
A band of light snow this evening (expected accumulations up to 1/2 inch) will be followed by a period of freezing drizzle tonight into early Monday morning. Expecting roads that are not snow covered or treated to become slick with freezing drizzle. Precipitation will end west to east early Monday morning. Leave extra time for travel tonight and use extra caution, as conditions may be slippery due to the combination of snow and freezing drizzle.
Special Weather Statement
As snow moves east through the area, it will transition to freezing drizzle. The freezing drizzle will gradually come to an end later this evening. The impact of the freezing drizzle and any ice glazing will be greatest for roads that are not covered in snow already or have treatments down for melting. Be careful if moving about this this evening as conditions may be more slippery due to the combination of snow and freezing drizzle.
Special Weather Statement
At 445 PM...radar indicated that the snow would be ending along the Mississippi river between 5 and 6 pm. In southeast Minnesota and northeast Iowa where the snow has ended, freezing drizzle has been reported, heaviest in Minnesota. This has caused a slight increase in accidents, according to law enforcement, in southeast Minnesota. In Wisconsin, as the snow comes to an end over the next hours, expect the same period of freezing drizzle to occur, causing slick roads to persist. The freezing drizzle will gradually come to an end this evening. The impact of the freezing drizzle and any ice glazing will be greatest for roads that are not covered in snow already or have treatments down for melting. Also, the drizzle will be more steady in southeast Minnesota into west-central Wisconsin. Be careful if moving about this this evening as conditions may be more slippery due to the combination of snow and freezing drizzle.
