A winter weather system will be something of a quick-hitter in Sheboygan County as far as the worst is concerned – that being wet, heavy snow – along with an extended finish according to updates.
National Weather Service forecasters in Milwaukee have continued a Winter Weather Advisory now to be in effect between 4 p.m. today and 1 p.m. on Wednesday as morning rains switch to snow in the early afternoon. The advisory has been extended several times, most recently at 2:40 p.m. on Tuesday.
By 4 p.m. Tuesday, heavy snow will have the potential to greatly reduce visibility and traction on the roads, while also building up on trees and power lines. Although the latter threat is greater in Fond du Lac, Calumet and Manitowoc Counties, which might get up to 8 inches of snow, Sheboygan County’s Winter Weather Advisory reflects lower amounts of between 2 and 4 inches, heaviest in the western reaches and Kettle Moraine. Overall, though, relatively mild temperatures will limit how much snow can build up.
What Falls, and When, Depends a Lot Upon Location According to NWS Forecasters
Although most impacts will be during the advisory period, it was cautioned that ongoing winds and light snow showers expected to last maybe 24 hours more could mean extended advisories being issued if conditions warrant.
