The storm system that brought rain to the
area late yesterday will move off to the northeast. As a
result, temperatures will remain steady or slowly fall
throughout the day with the passage of a cold front early
this morning. Behind this system, lingering clouds and
snow showers will contiune through Friday. High pressure
in the southeast will work it’s way in to provide
more sunshine on Saturday. The next next storm system
will develop over the Great Lakes and will affect the
region by late in the day Sunday.-- Prepared by the Campus Weather Service

Highlight
Parts of northern Wisconsin were buried under six to ten inches of heavy snow Tuesday night. A low pressure system tracking though the region produced rain out ahead of it, but snow developed in the wake of the storm as it pulled away. The weight of the snow caused power outages as trees had trouble holding the heavy snow. Trees that had fallen were also responsible for road closures.
