Things could get ugly in Dewitt County, per Twitter NWS the levee system near Clinton lake is in danger of failing, and possibly flooding state high ways, and the local town of Clinton. 

Derick Fabert actually warning people to leave work early and get home before sunset. 

 

If I recall, Clinton is a ways west of the lake.....

 

I think 57 is the only highway going through there...

Have gone over to a sleety snow mixture in Madison after getting about five inches of very heavy snow till about 2:00pm.

 

  I see the NAM keeps us in sleet past 000z while the GFS has us in all snow by 000z.

 

Guess I should not complain. At least it looks like winter out there.Blasting wind but was so neat when we were in moderate snow.

 

Those of you in rain and freezing rain I feel your pain.Early Nam runs makes  me feel "but for fortune" that could be Madison!
