WAUSAU, Wis. (WSAW) - Relatively quiet weather will return to the Badger State for a majority of the week, which will make for some rather pleasant travel conditions over Wisconsin and many of the states bordering it as well.

The only weather maker in the foreseeable future is a strong low pressure system that will push through Illinois and far southern Wisconsin Monday night into early Tuesday morning, which will bring some very light snow showers to areas as far north as US Highway 10 before daybreak Tuesday. While road conditions should remain mainly as good conditions in most of central Wisconsin, there will be some slippery stretches of roads before daybreak Tuesday and mainly for areas south of WIS 21 across Juneau and Adams Counties.

There will be a quick cool down as another weak cold front brings a wind shift back to the northwest Thursday and Friday, which will drop the high temps back into the lower 30s along with most overnight lows in the middle teens.
