11:34 AM: Weather alters campaign plans

Hillary Clinton has postponed this afternoon's planned rally in De Pere until Monday because of the weather, while Barack Obama has canceled an event in Kaukauna.

Clinton's event was scheduled to begin at 2:30 p.m. today but will instead go off at 9:30 a.m. tomorrow. She was making a stop today in Milwaukee at Miss Katie's Diner.

Clinton's rally at Madison's Monona Terrace was still on for 8:30 p.m. today as of this morning.

Obama's campaign said in a release its town hall meeting in Kaukauna had been canceled because of the weather. He will resume campaigning in Wisconsin tomorrow in Beloit.

UPDATE: Obama's campaign has also canceled appearances by Kansas Gov. Kathleen Sebelius, Arizona Gov. Janet Napolitano and U.S. Sen. Claire McCaskill of Missouri because of the weather. The three were scheduled to stop in La Crosse, Eau Claire and Superior. The canvassing events they were scheduled to appear at are still on.

A spokesman for Mike Huckabee says his planned campaign event in Milwaukee tonight is still on.
