_____________________________
A steady heavy wintry mix is here, unfortunately arriving for the evening commute. The precipitation will be a mainly snow/sleet combo from Milwaukee and north. Primarily freezing rain will continue to fall across our southern counties. Locations right along the lakeshore will transition over to just plain rain at times, which of course helps the icy situation.
The wintry mix becomes more scattered overnight and lingers into Thursday morning, especially northwest of Milwaukee. Total freezing rain will range from 0.25" to 0.50" within the Ice Storm warned counties. Total sleet and snow will range from 3-6" in Metro Milwaukee to 6-12" farther north.
