Here’s an update regarding wet, slushy snow for Tuesday into Wednesday.

Bottom Line Up Front:

• Accumulating wet, slushy snow is expected to start during the Tuesday morning commute, continuing through Tuesday night, with light snow showers lingering on Wednesday. 
• Highest snowfall amounts & increased impacts look to occur across east-central Wisconsin, due to lake enhancement.
• There is high uncertainty with snowfall amounts in far southeast Wisconsin, mainly around and south of Milwaukee, due to milder temperatures and some rain mixing in.
• With this being the first widespread accumulating snowfall of the season, expect some travel impacts.

Timing of snow:

• Snow begins 5-7 a.m. Tuesday morning, becoming widespread with a quick inch of snow accumulation by 9 a.m.
• Peak snowfall is expected mid-morning Tuesday through Tuesday evening.
• Light snow lingers through Wednesday.

What has changed?

• A quick inch of wet, slushy snow is expected to occur during the Tuesday morning commute, which may cause reduced visibility and slippery roads.
• There is high uncertainty with snow amounts in far southeast Wisconsin, mainly around and south of Milwaukee.
