A United Airlines Boeing 737-900, registration NXXXXX performing flight UA-XXX from Madison,WI to Minneapolis,MN (USA) with 180 passengers and 7 crew, diverted to Green Bay,WI due to weather and landed on Green Bay's Austin Straubel Airport's runway 06 at 03:16L (09:16Z), but overran the end of the runway by about 250 feet. There were no injuries. The crew radioed tower advising they had overrun the end of the runway due to poor braking action on runway 06, they thought they were okay, no injuries on board and the aircraft was okay, too. They just needed stairs so that passengers could disembark and needed to be towed back onto the runway.

The FAA reported the aircraft damaged an airport light.

The aircraft had already diverted to Madison,WI due to weather at Minneapolis while performing the scheduled flight UA-XXX from Houston Intercontinental,TX (USA) to Minneapolis.
