Blizzard Warning issued March 15 at 7:21PM CDT until March 16 at 4:00PM CDT by NWS Milwaukee/Sullivan WI
* WHAT...Freezing rain and sleet mixed with snow will continue
across the area for the next few hours before transitioning to
snowfall. High rates up to 1"/hr will develop across the region
into the early morning hours Monday as north winds continue to
gust between 40 and 45 MPH. The combination of high snow rates and
gusty winds will lead to blizzard conditions with visibilities
below 1/4 of a mile, potentially during the Monday morning
commute. Snowfall accumulations of 3 to 5 inches are expected.
* WHERE...Kenosha, Milwaukee, and Racine Counties.
* WHEN...Until 4 PM CDT Monday.
* IMPACTS...Travel could be very difficult. Widespread blowing snow
will significantly reduce visibility. The hazardous conditions are
expected to impact the Monday morning commute. Gusty winds could
bring down tree branches.
Travel should be restricted to emergencies only. If you must travel,
have a winter survival kit with you. If you get stranded, stay with
your vehicle. The latest road conditions for the state you are
calling from can be obtained by calling 5 1 1.
A Blizzard Warning means severe winter weather conditions are
expected. Falling and blowing snow with strong winds are likely.
This will lead to whiteout conditions, making travel extremely
dangerous.
