Winter storm moving through SE Wisconsin makes for tricky travel ahead of holiday weekend
Southeast Wisconsin (CBS 58) — A winter storm sweeping through southeastern Wisconsin is causing headaches on the roads ahead of the holiday weekend. AAA says it expects Thursday, Dec. 22, and his Friday, Dec. 23, to be his two busiest travel days this holiday season. Just over 2 million people are expected to travel, mostly by car.
With so many drivers on the road in snow and icy conditions, experts say it’s very important to pay attention to your driving.
AAA Director of Public Affairs Nick Jarmusz said:
CBS 58 has crews throughout the region who track road conditions.

There are definitely some slick spots on I-41N. It’s starting to snow just west of West Bend near Allenton as well. @CBS58 pic.twitter.com/AwNMtaqQFA
