Milwaukee, WI – Wisconsin residents should prepare for sharply colder weather this week, with temperatures dipping below seasonal averages. A cold front arrives Tuesday, bringing gusty winds and the possibility of snow by Wednesday.
According to the National Weather Service in Milwaukee, temperatures will fall into the 30s Tuesday, with daytime highs peaking at just 36°F. Wednesday brings a 30% chance of light snow or rain-snow mix during the morning hours, potentially impacting commutes along major roadways such as I-94 and I-43. Calm winds early Wednesday could transition to icy road conditions. Travelers should exercise caution, particularly during the morning hours.
Thanksgiving Day offers a reprieve from precipitation, but it will remain cold. Highs on Thursday will reach only 35°F, with partly sunny skies. Overnight lows drop to 21°F, making for a frigid start to Friday. Sunny conditions will persist into Friday and Saturday, but highs will remain in the upper 20s to low 30s.
The Milwaukee area can expect another chance of light snow over the weekend, especially Saturday, as temperatures remain unseasonably cold. Drivers are urged to check road conditions and weather updates regularly, especially ahead of Thanksgiving travel.
The extended cold spell could increase demand for winter preparations. Residents are encouraged to winterize their vehicles, insulate outdoor pipes, and stock up on supplies for potential snow showers later in the week.
