The National Weather Service issued a winter weather advisory from 10 a.m. to 7 p.m. for Dane, Green, Lafayette, Iowa, Sauk, Rock, Grant, Crawford and Richland counties.
Weather Service lead meteorologist Marc Kavinsky said the wet, slushy snow will fall at a moderate to briefly heavy rate for one to three hours resulting in slushy accumulations on untreated roads, though the snow will at least partially melt due to expected warmer pavement temperatures.
The snow may transition to patchy light rain and freezing drizzle from the mid-afternoon into the evening resulting in a light ice glaze.
Kavinsky said itâs possible the advisory may need to be extended farther east and further into the evening.
