Wisconsin wakes under a shallow blanket of fog drifting across farms, open fields, and damp roads as early Thanksgiving travel intensifies. Headlights glow softly through the mist around Green Bay, and pavement carries a thin sheen of moisture that reminds drivers to ease into the day with caution.
According to the National Weather Service, areas of fog—locally dense at times—may shift quickly through the morning across north-central and northeast Wisconsin. Drivers should slow down, watch for sudden visibility drops, and build extra time into their routes along I-43 and Highway 41. The calm, crisp air hides small pockets of thicker fog, especially in lower-lying areas.
Clouds increase today as a slight chance of drizzle develops toward midday. Temperatures climb into the mid-40s, keeping any precipitation light and non-wintry for now. To be fair, the mild air offers a brief November break before colder patterns start nudging into the picture next week.
Meteorologists note an early Winter Tease building across the country. Models hint at the potential for heavy snow somewhere across the northern United States between November 25 and December 3. While exact placement remains uncertain, major Midwest corridors—including flights and long-haul roads through Wisconsin—could feel the effects. Travelers heading out early for Thanksgiving should stay alert for shifting national travel conditions.
Saturday brings partly sunny skies and a high near the mid-40s, ideal for late-fall yard work or early Christmas decorating. Sunday turns sunnier and slightly warmer before another cool push slides in early next week. Low temperatures dip near or below freezing at times, which could eventually open the door to light flurries if moisture returns.
