| Episode narrativeepisode_narrative | LOW PRESSURE TRACKING NORTHEASTWARD ACROSS WISCONSIN ALLOWED WARM AIR TO OVERRUN A SHALLOW LAYER OF COLD AIR AT THE SURFACE. PRECIPITATION STARTED AS SNOW ON THE MORNING OF THE 4TH...WITH 4 TO 6 INCHES OF ACCUMULATION BY EARLY EVENING. THE SNOW THEN CHANGED TO FREEZING RAIN LATER IN THE EVENING. FREEZING RAIN...OCCASIONALLY HEAVY...CONTINUED OVERNIGHT. ICE ACCUMULATED UP TO AN INCH ON EXPOSED SURFACES IN MANY AREAS BY THE TIME PRECIPITATION ENDED. THE COMBINATION OF HEAVY WET SNOW AND ICE ACCUMULATION BROUGHT DOWN MANY BRANCHES AND POWERLINES. NUMEROUS ACCIDENTS WERE REPORTED DUE TO THE ADVERSE DRIVING CONDITIONS. |
