Lake Geneva, WI – With colder temperatures moving in and a chance of snow forecast for the upcoming holiday weekend, the City of Lake Geneva Fire Department is reminding residents to prepare now for possible winter weather.
According to the department’s update Monday morning, uncertainty remains in the system track, but both northern and southern scenarios point to the potential for snowfall across parts of southern Wisconsin beginning Saturday and continuing into Sunday. The heaviest snow is currently projected for northern Wisconsin, with rain and snow possible closer to the Illinois border.
The department shared key safety reminders as part of its #WinterReady campaign, encouraging residents to check vehicle tire pressure, fill gas tanks, and stock up on essentials such as blankets, flashlights, and non-perishable food. Officials also recommend monitoring local weather alerts and driving cautiously if travel is unavoidable during the storm window.
Fire crews also emphasized home and pedestrian safety — keeping walkways and steps clear of ice to prevent falls, and dressing in warm layers to protect against cold exposure.
Residents are urged to stay informed as the forecast evolves later this week, with updated advisories expected from the National Weather Service as the storm system approaches.
