Issued by The National Weather Service Green Bay, WI Updated Jan 27, 2014, 5:35am CST BLOWING AND DRIFTING SNOW EXPECTED TO IMPACT TRAVEL IN OPEN AREAS TODAY GUSTY WEST TO NORTHWEST WINDS WERE DRIVING BITTERLY COLD ARCTIC AIR ACROSS THE AREA EARLY THIS MORNING. WINDS AT MOST LOCATIONS HAD EASED UP A BIT FROM YESTERDAY EVENING..BUT THEY ARE LIKELY TO INCREASE AGAIN BY MID-MORNING. THE WINDS WILL GENERATE SOME BLOWING AND DRIFTING OF THE SNOW THAT FELL YESTERDAY. THE WORST CONDITIONS ARE LIKELY TO OCCUR IN OPEN AREAS... WHERE THE VISIBILITY COULD DROP TO LESS THAN 1/2 MILE AT TIMES. IN ADDITION... GIVEN THE COLD TEMPERATURES... THE MELTING AGENTS HIGHWAY CREWS TYPICALLY USE TO MELT SNOW WILL BE LARGELY INEFFECTIVE. SO THE SNOW BLOWING ACROSS ROADS COULD RESULT IN ICY PATCHES DEVELOPING. USE EXTRA CAUTION IF TRAVELING TODAY... ESPECIALLY WHEN CROSSING OPEN AREAS. BE SURE TO SLOW DOWN AND ALLOW PLENTY OF DISTANCE BETWEEN YOUR VEHICLE AND THE ONE AHEAD OF YOU.
