La Crosse, WI – Wisconsin residents are bracing for a sharp drop in temperatures starting tonight and lasting through Thursday. Daytime highs in the 40s will feel significantly colder due to west-northwest winds exceeding 20 mph, creating wind chills in the 20s to 30s.
According to the National Weather Service in La Crosse, the cooling trend will intensify midweek, with wind chill values dropping below zero by Wednesday night. Light snow flurries may affect parts of northern Wisconsin and southeast Minnesota, though measurable snowfall remains unlikely.
Residents are urged to dress warmly and limit outdoor exposure during the coldest hours, particularly Wednesday and Thursday mornings. While daytime temperatures may remain slightly above seasonal averages, the persistent wind chill will amplify the cold.
Local schools and businesses are advised to monitor updates for potential impacts on travel and outdoor activities. For now, the forecast suggests this cold snap will last until late Thursday, with chances for milder conditions by the weekend.
