Green Bay, WI – Fall warmth is taking a quick exit from northeastern Wisconsin this week as a cool, breezy pattern moves in by Wednesday. After a mild Columbus Day reaching near 69°F, residents should brace for a noticeable temperature drop midweek with highs in the lower 60s and nighttime lows falling into the mid-40s.
According to the National Weather Service, Tuesday will remain mostly sunny with calm winds, but by Wednesday, cooler air filters in from the north, bringing partly cloudy skies and a crisp breeze. Those with early-morning commutes along I-41 and Highway 172 may notice cooler air and patchy fog, especially near the Bay.
While no frost is expected yet, gardeners and fall decorators should prepare for chillier mornings later this week. Thursday brings a slight chance of light showers (20%), mainly in the afternoon, followed by another round of scattered showers Friday evening.
Looking ahead, the weekend forecast offers a classic Wisconsin fall setup—highs in the upper 60s with partly cloudy skies, perfect for pumpkin patch visits or leaf-viewing drives through Brown County.
