...Freezing Drizzle Expected Through Mid-Evening in Wisconsin...



At 630 pm, widespread freezing drizzle continues across southeast

Minnesota and northeast Iowa according to law enforcement and

weather radar. However, the drizzle has stopped west of Highway

63. Further east, it was also just beginning to fall in Winona 

and La Crosse as the snow has now ended there. 



In northeast Iowa and southeast Minnesota, east of Highway 63,

expect the freezing drizzle to end from west to east by about 8

pm. In Wisconsin, a period of 2 to 3 hours of freezing drizzle is

expected this evening once the snow ends. 



The impact of the freezing drizzle and any ice glazing will be 

greatest for untreated secondary roads. The overall impact of the

icing is prolonged slick roads that were snow covered. 



Be careful if moving about this this evening as conditions may be

more slippery due to the combination of snow and freezing 

drizzle.
