...WINTER WEATHER ADVISORY IN EFFECT FROM 10 PM THIS EVENING TO 7 AM CDT FRIDAY... ...MAJOR WINTER STORM TO BRING HEAVY SNOW ACCUMULATIONS, GUSTY WINDS,AND SIGNIFICANT TRAVEL IMPACTS THIS WEEKEND... .Two rounds of wintry weather will occur over the next several days. Tonight into Friday morning will feature very strong winds and occasional snow across parts of central Minnesota and western Wisconsin. Blowing snow could significantly reduce visibility, especially across the open areas of central Minnesota. A major winter storm will move across the Upper Midwest Saturday into Sunday. Model guidance continues to illustrate a remarkable precipitation footprint across the region which will yield heavy snow accumulations on the order of 6-10" across the Watch area. Localized totals across portions of southeastern MN and western WI will likely exceed 12". The combination of heavy snow and gusty winds will reduce visibility and create periods of blizzard conditions on Sunday. Very hazardous travel conditions will develop as a result. * WHAT...Heavy snow likely. Total snow accumulations in excess of 6" inches likely, with localized amounts exceeding 12". Winds could gust as high as 40 mph. * WHERE...Barron, Polk, Chippewa, Dunn, Eau Claire, Pepin, Pierce, and St. Croix Counties. * WHEN...From Saturday evening through Monday morning. * IMPACTS...Travel could be very difficult to impossible.

...TWO MAJOR WINTER STORMS TONIGHT INTO FRI MORNING AND SAT NIGHT INTO MON MORNING... .The first winter moves through northern Wisconsin tonight into Friday morning bringing snow to areas along and north of US Highway 10 in central Wisconsin with expected amounts rising rapidly north of Wisconsin Highway 29. With wind gusts ramping up overnight to 45 to 50 mph by Friday morning, unsheltered areas will see blowing and drifting snow leading to hazardous driving conditions. Light snow and blowing snow are expected to linger through the morning before winds begin decreasing Friday afternoon. The second winter storm could approach historic levels as a large band of 12 to 18 inches of snow falls across the region with localized amounts up to 24 inches. The main uncertainty in the forecast is exactly where this band sets up with the highest confidence currently from southeast Minnesota to between I-90 and Highway 29 in Wisconsin. There will be a relatively sharp gradient in snow amounts on the southern side of the snow band over northeast Iowa and southwest Wisconsin. In addition to the heavy snow, winds increase Sunday afternoon into Monday morning, with gusts of 35 to 50 mph possible west of the Mississippi River. These winds could lead to widespread blowing and drifting of snow and blizzard conditions, especially west of the Mississippi River. Regardless of exact snow amounts, expect widespread major travel impacts regionwide with some roads possibly becoming impassable. * WHAT...Heavy snow possible. Highest total snow accumulations between 12 and 18 inches with localized amounts approaching 24 inches possible. Lesser amounts of 6 to 12 inches of snow possible outside of this band. A glaze of ice is also possible if the storm trends further north. Winds could gust as high as 45 mph. * WHERE...Portions of central, southwest, and west central Wisconsin. * WHEN...From Saturday evening through Monday afternoon. * IMPACTS...Travel could be very difficult to impossible. Areas of blowing snow could significantly reduce visibility. The hazardous conditions could impact the Monday morning commute. Gusty winds could bring down tree branches.
