Tonight into Sunday is a WEATHER AWARE DAY in Northeast Wisconsin as a mix of ice, snow, and rain develops. Highest snow totals NORTH with the greatest potential for 0.1" of ice SOUTH. Slick travel is likely. Wind gusts to 35 mph. #StormCenter2 #WBAY #wiwx #WeatherAware

[David Ernst @DavidErnstWBAY]

Look for a frigid night across Northeast Wisconsin. Chills to -35 possible. We may also challenge a number of records for the coldest high temps on Monday afternoon. #wiwx #StormCenter2 #WBAY #weatheraware

[David Ernst @DavidErnstWBAY]

Heavy snow and dangerous travel across Northeast Wisconsin Tuesday. Most see around 8-10" of snow... give or take an inch or two, but there is still decent variation among computer guidance. Highest chance of 1' or more... SW of the Fox Valley. #WBAY #StormCenter2 #wiwx

[David Ernst @DavidErnstWBAY]

Our active weather continues!! Accumulating snow tonight (highest totals NORTH)... followed by another storm late Wed. into Thur. This one brings snow NORTH, rain SOUTH... and ICE is looking more likely across the Fox Valley. Stay tuned! #WBAY #StormCenter2 #wiwx

[David Ernst @DavidErnstWBAY]

The sun may look inviting... but don't be fooled!! Wind chills have not improved much since this morning.

[David Ernst @DavidErnstWBAY]

Short answer: I'm not!! Just staying inside as much as possible, but I did have to go into work. My car wouldn't start, but luckily my wife's did (and she's off today b/c her work canceled clinic).

A #WeatherAwareDay begins tonight as snow moves into Northeast Wisconsin. It will change to rain over the course of Monday morning, but not before we see 1-3" along/north of Hwy. 10. Higher totals expected north of Hwy. 64. #StormCenter2 #WBAY #wiwx

[David Ernst @DavidErnstWBAY]

Accumulating snow is looking more likely for New Year's Eve in Northeast Wisconsin. Slippery travel can be expected... be safe and stay informed. #wiwx #StormCenter2 #WBAY #weatheraware

[David Ernst @DavidErnstWBAY]

Wednesday is a WEATHER AWARE DAY as light snow overspreads Northeast Wisconsin. Steadier snow should develop during the AM commute, and roads may become slippery... plan for a longer than normal drive time. #StormCenter2 #WBAY #wiwx #WeatherAware

You know who's the best chief meteorologist ever? It's @SteveBeylonWBAY! He logs off the Twitter account, that I've accidentally kept logged in at work. ;-)
Stay tuned this weekend as @wxgirljen & I track the snow & keep you updated! #WBAY #StormCenter2 #WeTrackStorms

[David Ernst @DavidErnstWBAY]

Abnormal cold gripping much of the Central and Eastern U.S. with highs Tuesday 15-30° below avg. For Green Bay, we'll be in the mid 20s... but at least we'll stay warmer than the all-time record for the coldest afternoon on 11/13!! #StormCenter2 #WBAY #wiwx

[NWS Green Bay @NWSGreenBay]

Official first inch of snow in Green Bay today! We've measured 1.3" since midnight. Only one time in the last 25 years have we had the first inch earlier. #wiwx

LOTS of crashes this morning as our area deals with our first snowfall. First time dealing with these conditions since April. We have TimeSaver Traffic alerts coming up throughout the morning @WBAY

TRAFFIC ALERT: the red squares represent crashes around Northeast Wisconsin. Officials say with this first significant snow of the season, road conditions are getting worse as we head into morning rush hour. #TimesaverTraffic

[David Ernst @DavidErnstWBAY]

Snow showers ongoing this morning across eastern Wisconsin. Road temps are generally below freezing leading to slippery travel. Give yourself additional drive time, and be safe!! #WBAY #StormCenter2 #weatheraware

With severe weather imminent this evening, its important to think about where you'll go when severe weather threatens to strike. This is a helpful graphic from the National Weather Service

[David Ernst @DavidErnstWBAY]

(2:55p) Tornado Watch expected to be issued shortly. Areas north of Green Bay/Appleton included in an enhanced risk for severe weather. Make sure you have a way to get severe weather alerts. #StormCenter2 #wiwx #WBAY
