Snowing to "beat the band" with a Blizzard Warning in place for Monday

WSI

MILWAUKEE (CBS 58)--Before Monday, we were had at least a 5-and-a-half-inch snowfall deficit for the season. This departure will be wiped away after Monday's snowfall. Expect to see snowfall totals around 5 inches across the metro along with higher amounts north and lesser totals to the south. The Blizzard Warning holds until 4 PM.  Remember, with a blizzard, you actually don't need to have snow falling.  You just need snow on the ground along with three hours of visibility reduced to a quarter of a mile or less. 35 mph wind gusts are also part of the criteria. Meantime, the snow departs the area into the evening.  Our winds should die down considerably as well into the night. Looking ahead, we have a few bouts of light precipitation, including light snow for Wednesday morning and perhaps a bit of mix for Thursday morning.  Could be around 50 degrees by Friday, the actual start of spring!
