1. Mother Nature is not cooperating with holiday travel. A winter storm has arrived in Wisconsin. Some areas in northern Wisconsin got more than a foot of snow overnight. It's not as bad here in southeastern Wisconsin, but we're getting snow too. It's not just the snow though, it's that whipping wind! Snowy, windy conditions today, and over Thanksgiving week, could snarl travel plans for many families. Some areas of the Midwest could experience high winds, and blizzard conditions. According to our friends over at Storm Team 4, we'll see snow off and on throughout the day. Blowing snow may reduce visibility, so be careful if you're traveling today.
2. We're just over two weeks away from the start of Hannah Dugan's federal trial in downtown Milwaukee. The County judge is accused of allegedly helping an undocumented immigrant, Eduardo Flores-Ruiz, evade arrest by ICE and federal agents at the courthouse back in April.
3. Happening now, crews are starting to inflate the big balloons for the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade. Thousands of spectators are on hand in New York City to watch as the signature character balloons come to life. It takes about 90 minutes to inflate each balloon. This is the 99th year of the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade. Expect to see 34 balloons, 28 floats, and some sweet performances. Four new character balloons will be showcased tomorrow: including Buzz Lightyear, Pac-Man, Shrek’s Onion Carriage, and Mario by Nintendo. Stars from Wicked will be in the parade, country music star Lainey Wilson, even Busta Rhymes.
