Planning aid only. This forecast maps the 7-day air-temperature
forecast (Open-Meteo) to a practice category through fixed temperature thresholds
(<25 °F = FRD, 25 to 32 °F = transition, 32 to 40 °F = SWR, >40 °F = NRM).
The displayed stiffness is a temperature-driven seasonal index, not a site-specific or single-depth modulus and not an average of the zone’s sites; in warm months every zone reads the same summer baseline, and the index separates the zones only during freeze and thaw. For the current and
historical state of pavement stiffness, use the Pavement Stiffness service.

Wis. Stat. 348.15(3) - Class A highway limits
Normal Operations — Recommended Action
Normal operations — no seasonal restrictions. Standard Class A highway limits apply per Wis. Stat. 348.15(3): single axle 20,000 lbs, tandem axle 34,000 lbs, gross vehicle weight 80,000 lbs. Pavement subgrade has recovered to design stiffness. Forest product vehicles may operate at 21,500 lbs single / 37,000 lbs tandem year-round. Routine maintenance monitoring continues.
