Stormy Weekend Ahead For Dozens Of US States

Jan 10, 2020 at 08:03 AM CST
Shippers, carriers and drivers should expect the most significant impacts in portions of Wisconsin, lower Michigan and adjacent areas of southern Canada, where 6 to 12 inches of snowfall will accumulate. As the storm cranks up, winds will become strong and gusty. This could result in areas of whiteout conditions as well as potential scattered power outages and roadblocks due to downed trees and utility lines. Blowing/drifting snow and reduced visibility could occur on and off for 24 to 36 hours. Ice accumulations will be most significant in a swath from east-central Kansas through north-central Missouri, possibly extending close to the Chicago metro area and into central and southern portions of Michigan.
