<\/p>\nGov. Evers declares state of emergency for upcoming Wisconsin winter storm<\/p>\n
Expect everything from rain, sleet, snow and strong winds starting Saturday night into Monday morning<\/p>\n
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tTHE BACHELORETTE, FOLLOWED BY 12 NEWS AT TEN. METEOROLOGIST GINO RECCHIA IS HERE. JUNEAU. IT\u2019S GOING TO BE A GOOD NIGHT TO STAY IN AND WATCH THE OSCARS. >> YEAH, I MEAN, WITH THE DETERIORATING ROAD CONDITIONS WITH THAT SNOW MOVING IN HERE, CERTAINLY PROBABLY DON\u2019T WANT TO BE DRIVING OUT AND ABOUT LATE TOMORROW NIGHT AS WE\u2019RE GOING TO HAVE THAT TRANSITION BACK OVER TO SOME SNOW SNOWING RIGHT NOW ACROSS OUR FAR NORTHERN COUNTIES, WHICH WAS EXPECTED ACROSS WITH THIS BAND. THAT\u2019S KIND OF STICKING AROUND ACROSS FOND DU LAC, SHEBOYGAN COUNTIES, AND THEN FLIRTING NEAR PARTS OF DODGE, OZAUKEE WASHINGTON COUNTIES. AS YOU CAN SEE, HOW THAT DRY AIR IS KIND OF INFILTRATING SOME OF THE BAND. BUT IF YOU\u2019RE UP IN NORTHERN WISCONSIN, A COMPLETELY DIFFERENT STORY RIGHT NOW, WITH SOME HEAVIER SNOWFALL RATES GOING ON, VISIBILITY IS NOT TOO BAD. BEAVER DAM AT SEVEN MILES. VISIBILITY. MOST OF THOSE IMPACTS ARE UP TOWARDS SHEBOYGAN COUNTIES, WHERE THEY\u2019RE DOWN TO ABOUT TWO MILES OR SO. A LIVE LOOK RIGHT NOW IN SLINGER SHOWS SOME WET ROADS AND SOME WET PAVEMENT, BUT EVEN SEEING A LITTLE BIT OF SOME SNOW COMING DOWN RIGHT NOW, NOT TOO HEAVY OF A BAND AT THE MOMENT, BUT IN SHEBOYGAN, A LITTLE BIT OF A DIFFERENT STORY. YOU FOLKS. IT IS A WHITE SCENE. WE\u2019VE GOT 30 DEGREES SNOW COMING DOWN AT A PRETTY GOOD CLIP. AND THIS IS WHERE I\u2019M THINKING. AREAS IN FOND DU LAC, SHEBOYGAN COUNTY, HAVE THE BEST CHANCE TO GET UPWARDS OF ABOUT THREE INCHES OF SNOWFALL WITH THIS FIRST BAND THAT MOVES IN HERE OVERNIGHT TONIGHT. AND THE REASON WHY WE\u2019RE SEEING IT IS FROM THIS WARM FRONT. THAT\u2019S MOISTURE. THAT\u2019S OVERRIDING THE WARM FRONT, ADDING A LITTLE BIT OF LIFT, SPARKING THAT BAND FROM EAST STRETCHING OFF TOWARDS THE WEST AS THIS LOW REALLY STARTS TO INTENSIFY. AND THAT LOW IS GOING TO TRACK ACROSS NORTHERN ILLINOIS, INTO SOUTHERN WISCONSIN. AND AS IT DOES SO, IT\u2019S GOING TO PULL MORE MOISTURE FROM THE GULF OF MEXICO. AND WE\u2019LL BE WATCHING IN THE FIRST HALF SOME RAIN AND EVEN SOME STORMS. THEN ON THE BACK END, GOING BACK OVER TO SNOW AND HEAVY. AT TIMES WE HAVE BEEN UPGRADED TO A WINTER STORM WARNINGS AND WINTER WEATHER ADVISORIES FROM THAT WINTER STORM. WATCH EARLIER. BUT LOOK AT ALL THE BLIZZARD WARNINGS AS WELL. IT\u2019S NOT ONLY THE SNOW, BUT IT\u2019S ALSO THE STRONG WINDS WE COULD POTENTIALLY GET AT TIMES NEAR WHITEOUT CONDITIONS, ESPECIALLY FOR OUR WESTERN COUNTIES, WHERE WE DO HAVE THAT WINTER STORM WARNING. BUT IT DOESN\u2019T LOOK LIKE PERHAPS THE CRITERIA WILL BE MET AS LONG FOR THAT THREE HOUR MINIMUM TO HAVE TRUE BLIZZARD CONDITIONS. EITHER WAY, ROADS ARE NOT GOING TO BE THAT GREAT TOMORROW NIGHT INTO MONDAY MORNING. SO YOU\u2019RE WANT TO TAKE IT SAFE IF YOU\u2019RE TRAVELING OUT AND ABOUT WINTER WEATHER ADVISORY WITH A LITTLE BIT LESSER SNOWFALL AMOUNTS IN MILWAUKEE AND POINTS DOWN TO THE SOUTH, EVEN PORT WASHINGTON, WHERE THERE\u2019S GOING TO BE MORE WINTRY MIX AND SOME RAIN BEFORE THAT CHANGEOVER TO SNOW, FUTURECAST SNOW ONGOING UP TO THE NORTH OVERNIGHT. TONIGHT, WE\u2019LL ACTUALLY GET INTO A LULL TOMORROW MORNING. THIS IS 5:00. BUT THEN AS WE GET INTO THE MID MORNING HOURS, SOME SCATTERED SHOWERS AND EVEN PERHAPS A RUMBLE OF THUNDER, NOT OUT OF THE QUESTION GOING INTO THE LATE MORNING AND EARLY AFTERNOON HOURS AS TEMPERATURES RISE INTO THE LOWER 50S. BUT IT\u2019S 20 JUST TO THE WEST OF US. AND THAT COLD AIR IS GOING TO WRAP AROUND HERE TOMORROW NIGHT. THIS IS FUTURECAST AT 8:00 SHOWING THAT WRAPAROUND SNOW, SNOW COMING DOWN PRETTY HEAVILY AT TIMES AS WE GET TOWARDS MIDNIGHT INTO THE OVERNIGHT HOURS. AND AS WE MOVE TOWARDS THE MORNING COMMUTE, SNOW IS GOING TO START TO TAPER OFF A LITTLE BIT. STILL HOLDING ON TO SOME LIGHT SNOW SHOWERS, BUT IT\u2019S GOING TO BE VERY WINDY AS WELL. SO RURAL COMMUNITIES, YOU WILL BE DEALING WITH MORE BLOWING AND DRIFTING SNOWFALL WITH TOTAL ACCUMULATIONS AROUND 3 TO 6IN OF AMOUNTS MILWAUKEE DOWN TOWARDS WALWORTH COUNTY, 1 TO 3IN FOR RACINE AND KENOSHA COUNTIES. AND THEN IF YOU GET UP TOWARDS NEAR WATERTOWN, BEAVER DAM, JUST WEST BEND, YOU\u2019RE TALKING ABOUT 6 TO 9 AND THEN PUSHING OVER NINE INCHES OF SNOWFALL. AND THIS IS BOTH FROM TONIGHT THROUGH TOMORROW NIGHT. THE TOTAL SNOWFALL AMOUNTS. ALSO, WE EVEN HAVE A CHANCE FOR SOME THUNDERSTORMS. AND AS I WAS TALKING ABOUT, THERE\u2019S A LEVEL ONE OUT OF FIVE RISK FOR SOME STRONGER STORMS. VERY LOW CHANCE TO SEE ANY SMALL HAIL AND A LOW RISK FOR SOME DAMAGING WINDS. I\u2019M NOT EXPECTING ANY WIDESPREAD SEVERE WEATHER AT ALL WITH THE SYSTEM, BUT THERE COULD BE PERHAPS A SLIGHTLY STRONGER STORM HERE OR THERE DURING THE DAY. TOMORROW WE\u2019LL KEEP A WATCHFUL EYE FOR TONIGHT. SNOW MIX TO RAIN, THEN A LULL TOMORROW MORNING AND THEN BACK OVER TO SOME RAIN IN THE AFTERNOON AND EVENING BEFORE THE CHANGEOVER TO SOME SNOW AS THAT LOW PRESSURE MOVES OUT. ALSO ANOTHER THING. GUESS WHAT? WE\u2019VE GOT ANOTHER ROUND ON THE WAY AS WE HEAD INTO OUR TUESDAY NIGHT, SO DON\u2019T GET READY TO JUST PUT THOSE SHOVELS AWAY JUST YET. TUESDAY NIGHT WE HAVE ANOTHER CHANCE FOR SOME SNOWFALL. SO A LITTLE ACTIVE PATTERN COMING IN HERE. 53 FOR THE HIGH TEMPERATURE TOMORROW, 23 ON MONDAY, 23 ON TUESDAY. BACK NEAR 40 DEGREES ON WEDNESDAY. AFTER THAT MORNING. SNOW MOVES OUT OF HERE TUESDAY NIGHT WARMING UP TO NEAR 50 DEGREES ON THURSDAY AND FRIDAY AND MID 40S ON SATURDAY. SO ALL THAT SNOW THAT COMES DOWN, IT\u2019S GOING TO BE MELTING A LOT MORE FASTER. IT\u2019S NOT LIKE THE MIDDLE OF WINTER WHICH STICKS AROUND FOR A WHILE. >> I WAS GOING TO SAY HOPEFULLY THIS\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n
