Description:
...MIXED WINTER EVENT WITH SNOW, SLEET, AND ICE ACCUMULATION TODAY
INTO SATURDAY...
.A mixed precipitation event will unfold across Minnesota into
Wisconsin today into tomorrow. Across parts of central Minnesota,
this will mainly fall as snow with up to 7 inches possible. Farther
south, a band of freezing rain and sleet from southwest Minnesota to
northwest Wisconsin will see ice accumulations up to two tenths of an
inch. There will be a sharp cutoff in these ice accumulations, as
this will be very sensitive to where the freezing line sets up. So
additional shifts in the southward extent maybe needed later in the
day.

between 4 and 7 inches, sleet accumulations up to one tenth of an
inch, and ice accumulations up to one tenth of an inch.

* IMPACTS...Travel could be very difficult. The hazardous conditions
will impact the Friday evening commute.
Instruction:
If you must travel, keep an extra flashlight, food, and water in your
vehicle in case of an emergency. Call 5 1 1 or visit 511mn.org for
