These Wausau and Marshfield area schools will close Monday due to a snowstorm


Due to a snowstorm moving across central Wisconsin that is expected to bring upward of 10 inches of snow to portions of the area and uncertain road conditions in the morning, local schools are announcing closures for Monday.

The National Weather Service has issued a winter storm warning for Marathon and Lincoln counties in central Wisconsin until 7 a.m. Monday. Heavy snow is expected with total snow accumulations between 6 and 10 inches. Patchy blowing wind could also reduce visibility in open areas tonight. The hazardous conditions could impact the Monday morning commute, the weather service said.

Similar conditions are expected in Portage and Wood counties, where the National Weather Service has issued a winter weather advisory until 1 a.m. Monday. Snow accumulations of 3-6 inches are expected along with slippery roads.
