⚠️ Here is a quick snapshot of conditions along US 51 in Lincoln County from Wisconsin State Patrol. Roads are snow covered and slippery. Strong winds and heavy snow are causing whiteout conditions, as well as some drifting on the on/off ramps. #WIWX

It’s not the holiday season without bowl games! In honor of the 2018 @PinStripeBowl at @yankeestadium, our tower will shine in red & white on the east/west sides for @BadgerFootball and green & orange on the north/south sides for @CanesFootball. 🏈 Who are you rooting for?

If you need your wipers, you need your headlights. State law requires headlight use when weather conditions limit visibility to 500 feet or less. #wiwx

Texting while driving has become a prevalent and dangerous trend especially among millennials. Make the right call. Put the phone away. #TeenDriverSafetyWeek

Dusk and dawn are the times when deer are most active. These signs help alert drivers to areas where deer are common. #DriveAware

Deer are on the move. If you see one, look for more. Avoid sudden swerving which can result in a loss of vehicle control.

Enjoy watching the @Packers today, but do it responsibly. Designate a sober driver if you decide to drink. #ArriveAlive #DriveSober

Attention drivers headed south to Madison this morning: Workers are out moving sandbags to help protect I-39 from rising water levels. There is a single lane closure southbound near Portage. Motorists are urged to continue checking 511wi.gov for travel information.

Rain lingering across southern parts of Wisconsin. Turn your headlights on. Remember: if you need your wipers, you need your headlights.
