1-2” here so far, heaviest stuff is supposed to be between 2pm-8pm. Calling for another 3-5 .
 
4-5 inches here in western Sheboygan county, Two miles east of Hwy 57 about 2-3 inches as of now.
Very wet snow, will be perfect base.
Some clubs are looking to pan later today or tomorrow.
I plan to be out early tomorrow morning, all day.
Temps to be lower after midnight.
Should some great riding by weekend.

These schools have gone sooo soft it's unbelievable
While I 110% agree, 10,20,30,40+ years ago, a larger amount of moms did not work. Nowadays most moms have to work full time with the cost of living, and knowing ahead of time that school is cancelled due to weather, is extremely helpful to plan someone to watch the kids.

In Lake Mills, snowing pretty good, I-94 snow covered, roll over near Portage, about 2” on the ground at 2pm. I’ve seen worse.

What's going on in the FOX valley/Milwaukee area?....
This is kind of a strange one. Snowing since midnight, took a 2 hour break this morning and back to flurries again. Only about 3" so far, very dense, wet, snow. Ideal for a trail base, just not enough volume. Winds have been picking up too. Not the best day to travel if you don't have to. I'm thinking the Body Shops are going to be busy after this one.

The schools cancel attendance, but most are doing what they did during Covid, "Remote Learning" which doesn't count as a Snow Day. I'm thinking the Gaming activity is way up and the study time is considerably less. ;)

Similar region as Gary and Indy, I'm between Oshkosh and Neenah. So hard to tell what's actually fallen, as it is slowly melting at the same time. Yeah maybe 1-2". It is heavy/wet, and the bottom layer is a lot of slush. Side roads that I was on were VERY slippery this morning but improved pretty quickly with plows/salt/daybreak. For that reason I do think the schools made the right call. My kids made snowmen mid-morning, and the paths they rolled the balls showing bare grass are not filling in at all with new snow accumulation the last few hours.

Neenah school district has no snow days built into the schedule. Today is a "virtual learning day", kids need to log into their devices and complete a few activities/assignments and submit their work, and apparently the district can count that as a normal in person day. A sign of the times I guess.

2 semi trucks rolled over at HyG and I-94 blocking entire westbound lanes, going to be awhile before that one is cleaned up. Snowing hard In Pewaukee, WI, slow down people!

Are you referring to using whatever bathroom you identify as that day,,,
Are you referring to no longer recognizing the pledge allegiance,,
Are you referring to guys that think they're girls competing in all girl sports,,,
Are you referring to schools indoctrinating students in to left leaning belief's,,,,,

Or are we still talking weather??

No sense in risking the safety of the kids not only to get them to school, but the return trip home. Too many careless drivers out there as well as averts potential law suits to the school district. Though, I do agree with the soft aspect to a degree, we went in storms, came back in storms, even if it was an early dismissal. The kids that lived in the farmland areas were sent home before the rest us as those roads were notorious for drifting over badly if not completely. You knew the roads were real bad when the 5 ton Oshkosh V-Plows were getting stuck. Ahh, the good ole days.

Isn't it a little warm to go out?

And thanks for everyone who's panning I'm certainly not complaining! I'm just wondering about the temperatures

Buddy in Middleton said 6" so far. Portage is 5" right now, and it's coming down. It really picked up the last 2 hours. :)

Snow intensity has picked up here in Neenah, temps are beginning to drop. Best news of all is that we have some cold weather coming in soon, single digits by this weekend! Below Zero for nighttime lows next week!
