As the area continues cleaning up from last weekend’s storms, Door County will have to brace for impact again. The National Weather Service issued a winter weather advisory for much of northern Wisconsin, including Door County, to run from 10 p.m. Tuesday until 10 a.m. Wednesday. With the mixed precipitation falling, the area could receive between one to three inches of snow and ice accumulations amounting to a light glaze. Motorists could wake up to slippery road conditions for their Wednesday morning commute.

The winter weather advisory comes as Washington Island Electric Cooperative crews work hard around the clock to restore power to the entire town. Last night, the Cooperative detailed the progress that has been made since storms hit the island on Friday night. Crews and volunteers have been scouring the island for broken wires, fallen trees, and debris that could hinder their ability to get everyone back up.

Due to storm clean-up efforts, Washington Island School District has been closed for the last two days. To stay current on any cancellations or postponements related to the storm, visit our cancellations page.
