This includes MSCR, athletics and all other activities taking place after 6 p.m. Friday and all day Saturday.
According to Channel3000.com, News 3 Meteorologist Bob Lesh said the storm headed northwest from central Illinois puts Wisconsin in a favorable spot for heavy snow. He added that the bulk of the accumulating snow will continue overnight. A break in the precipitation is expected Saturday morning, with snow returning to the area Saturday afternoon and evening.
Snowfall totals will range from 5-10 inches, with the highest amounts falling north and northeast of Dane County.
