Justin Liles: South shore snow & increasing winds tonight
The track of our next weather system has shifted a touch north since yesterday, increasing accumulation potential in Wisconsin. A Winter Storm Warning is in effect for Bayfield, Ashland, Iron, and Gogebic Co. from 7 pm Tuesday until 1 am Thursday. Price County is in a Winter Weather Advisory from 7 pm Tuesday to 7 am Wednesday.
Snow chances build across northwest Wisconsin from the south through the day. Snow will gradually taper off from the west overnight, but lake and terrain enhanced snow may linger along the South Shore near and east of the Bayfield Peninsula through Wednesday night. 1-3″ is possible along and east of a line from Solon Springs to Hayward. Amounts quickly increase moving toward a target intersecting southern Bayfield, Ashland, Iron, and Gogebic Co. where 6-9″ is possible.
