Green Bay, WI – Freezing temperatures and light snow showers are creating slick conditions on roads in northeast Wisconsin this weekend. Wind chills will drop into the single digits below zero overnight and persist through the week, prompting caution for Sunday travel.
According to the National Weather Service (NWS), flurries will linger into Sunday afternoon, with a high near 29°F and northwest winds reaching 18 mph. This combination will cause hazardous driving conditions, especially on highways like I-43 and secondary roads prone to icing. Residents are urged to monitor weather updates and allow extra time for travel.
The upcoming week sees little relief from the cold. Monday’s high will hit 34°F with a chance of flurries, but temperatures will dip to 18°F by nightfall. By Tuesday, expect partly sunny skies and highs near 29°F before snow showers return Tuesday night. These conditions could lead to slippery roads and potential travel disruptions into Wednesday morning.
Lake-effect snow showers may bring additional accumulation to areas north of Green Bay early in the week. NWS warns of increased risks for drivers, especially during early morning commutes when roads may be most icy.
Local residents should prepare for extended periods of cold by ensuring proper vehicle maintenance and carrying emergency supplies. Check local advisories for updates and stay alert for sudden weather changes.
