HWD I issued early this morning.

This part of the HWD is for Northern WI....
Lake effect snow advisory has been issued by the NWS for the following Northern parts of these Counties.....Ashland,Bay field,and Iron....
Strong cold winds blowing over the warm water of Lake Superior will be the focal point of LES today through Monday...Heavy snow is forecasted for said areas...3 to as much as 7 inches of snow is possible by time the LES machine shuts down....Winds will also cause blowing and drifting of the snow,making travel difficult.....
Rest of our WI Zones....
Wind advisory has been issued by the NWS...Strong winds from 20 to 30 MPH are on tap for today through Monday Morning....Winds could gusts up to 40 to 45 MPH at times...Along with the strong winds light snow is a good bet...Little or no snow accumulations are excepted,however the ground could whiten up from time to time with the heavier snow showers,or down stream from bigger lakes...
Now on to our MN Zones....
The NWS has issued a Winter weather advisory for the Northern Counties of MN...Here 1 to 2 inches of snow is possible...With strong winds blowing and drifting of the snow is also possible....Elsewhere's little or no snow accumulations are expected,however just like in WI we could see some LES snows off the bigger lakes...So people down stream from these lakes could see some snow accumulations....
Still would not be shocked to see the ground get white from time to time with the heavier snow showers.....Wind advisory is also posted for all of my MN zones...strong winds from 20 to 30 MPH with gusts up to 40 to 45 MPH..Through tonight before the winds die down some over night.....
