Travel remains difficult in many areas of northern Wisconsin, with travel not advised at all on many roads.
If you must travel, have a winter survival kit with you. If you get stranded, stay with your vehicle.
Drivers should plan ahead and visit 511wi.gov or use the 511 Wisconsin app to monitor winter road conditions and view live videos from traffic cameras along their route.
The National Weather Service has issued a blizzard warning that includes all 15 counties in WisDOT’s North Central Region extending into Monday.
Depending on location, travel could be very difficult to impossible. Blowing snow could result in drifting across roadways and reduced visibility. Sustained winds can make driving difficult, especially for high profile vehicles like trucks, which are at risk of losing control or tipping over in windy conditions.
Drivers should be aware when traveling near larger vehicles and keep a safe distance.
You're also reminded to give snowplows plenty of room to work.
Wisconsin law requires you to stay at least 200 feet back from a working snowplow.
