Areas affected...east-central Minnesota across central Wisconsin.

Concerning...Freezing rain=20

Valid 020855Z - 021200Z

SUMMARY...An area of freezing rain will expand this morning from
eastern Minnesota to central Wisconsin.

DISCUSSION...Several observation sites are recording moderate ice
accretion this morning from eastern Minnesota to central Wisconsin.
A strengthening pressure gradient between the strong high pressure
across Quebec and the developing cyclone across the Plains will
maintain moderate easterly flow early this morning and keep
temperatures below freezing. Forecast soundings show the warm nose=20
near the Lake Superior shore. Therefore, as precipitation continues
to expand northward, expect most of the precipitation to remain
freezing rain, with some sleet more likely with northward extent.
