More Information
... BLIZZARD LIKELY TUESDAY NIGHT AND WEDNESDAY...
.THREE DIFFERENT WEATHER FEATURES WILL COMBINE TO BRING EXTREME SNOW TOTALS TO SOUTHERN WISCONSIN. A FAVORABLE SETUP FOR LAKE EFFECT SNOWS BEGINS EARLY MONDAY MORNING OVER SHEBOYGAN COUNTY AND OVER THE REMAINDER OF THE LAKE COUNTIES MONDAY AND MONDAY NIGHT. IT THEN PERSISTS INTO WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON. A WEATHER DISTURBANCE WILL AFFECT THE AREA ON MONDAY INTO TUESDAY BRINGING 4 TO 6 INCHES OF SNOW WITH UP TO 8 INCHES NEAR LAKE MICHIGAN.
A STRONGER LOW PRESSURE CENTER WILL GATHER STRENGTH AND MOISTURE AND MOVE NORTHEAST FROM THE MID MISSISSIPPI VALLEY TUESDAY. BLIZZARD CONDITIONS ARE POSSIBLE FROM THE SHEBOYGAN AND JANESVILLE AREAS ON EAST. A LARGE AREA OF 6 TO 12 INCHES IS EXPECTED SOUTH OF A LINE FROM THE WISCONSIN DELLS TO FOND DU LAC. 12 TO 18 INCHES ARE FORECAST SOUTH OF A LINE FROM JANESVILLE TO PORT WASHINGTON... WITH ABOUT 18 INCHES IN RACINE AND KENOSHA COUNTIES.
STORM TOTALS FROM BOTH SYSTEMS COULD BE IN THE 18 TO 24 INCH RANGE IN FAR SOUTHEAST WISCONSIN. SIGNIFICANT BLOWING AND DRIFTING SNOW AND BLIZZARD CONDITIONS ARE POSSIBLE. THIS STORM IS SIMILAR TO THE EARLY JANUARY 1999 BLIZZARD... WHICH PRODUCED 14 TO 18 INCHES OF SNOW IN SOUTHEAST WISCONSIN WITH 4 TO 8 FOOT DRIFTS EAST OF A LINE FROM FOND DU LAC TO JANESVILLE.
NEEDLESS TO SAY THIS COULD BE A HISTORIC BLIZZARD CAPABLE OF PARALYZING PARTS OF SOUTHEAST WISCONSIN...

Down here we supposed to get two storms, Tomorrow it's supposed to be about 2-4 inches but the Tuesday is these damned Oklahoma Hooks that will drop about a foot of that stuff. Not looking forward to this.
Sucks don't it? I just heard the latest update. 15-17 inches Tuesday night into Wednesday morning. I just may call in sick for work...
We survived round 1. I think we got about an inch and half of snow but the wind was blowing pretty good. Had some drifting on roads but got home okay. We'll see how Tuesday goes, last I checked before going to bed Storm number 2 was still in Oklahoma/Texas moving into Missouri. It looks it's going to be more south than originally thought but I'm sure we'll still get about 5 to 8 inches at least.
If that's the case I won't be going to work.
Round one went through this morning leaving the roads a mess. The second round is here now. The winds outside are now gusting close to 50 mph. It's gonna get worse before the night is over.
Glad that work has been canceled...
Well Storm number 2 is here bigtime. I think we on our way of getting a foot of the white stuff, as of 8 PM 8 inches and still coming down. Wind is making it impossible to be out there very long. Good thing I didn't go to work today, all roads around me are traveled not recommended.
