THE WEEKEND DOG-WALKING FORECAST: We grade the weather outlook for taking your pet outdoors.

Patchy blowing snow is also expected in portions of east central Wisconsin, south central Wisconsin and southeast Wisconsin from noon Saturday to noon Sunday. The falling and blowing snow will reduce visibilities at times Saturday night into Sunday morning.

PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS… A Winter Weather Advisory for snow means periods of snow will cause primarily travel difficulties. Be prepared for snow covered roads and limited visibilities, and use caution while driving. The latest road conditions for the state you are calling from can be obtained by calling 5 1 1.
