Appleton receives over 4 inches of snow during Thursday storm

APPLETON – Appleton received over 4 inches of snow during Thursday’s snow storm, according to the National Weather Service.

Over the course of the full snowfall event, Appleton saw between 4 and 5 inches of snow, with 4.8 inches falling in the Darboy area, meteorologist Tim Kieckbusch said. The heaviest snowfall in northeastern Wisconsin collected near the Lake Michigan shoreline, with Two Rivers seeing 7.8 inches and Manitowoc seeing just over 7 inches.

Where can I check road conditions?

The Wisconsin Department of Transportation maintains an interactive map detailing winter road conditions for major highways and interstates: 511wi.gov.

The department on Tuesday announced new winter road condition categories for the map, to more clearly convey conditions to drivers. The new conditions are: normal, marked in green; partially covered, in blue; completely covered, in pink; travel not advised, in black; and no report, in gray.

The map also flags active crashes and offers views through traffic cameras on some highways in Brown County — most notably, Interstate and U.S. 41, Interstate 43, State 172, State 54/57 and State 29. So before heading out, you can check the traffic cameras and see in real time the road conditions and traffic.
