GREEN BAY, Wisconsin – Cold, still air wrapped Green Bay in a quiet early morning chill as the mercury held near freezing. Patches of frost glistened along open fields, while calm skies signaled a peaceful start to the final weekend before Thanksgiving travel ramps up. That calm, however, won’t last long — a quick shift toward wetter, windier weather is on the horizon for early next week.
The National Weather Service reports Friday will stay sunny with highs near 45°F, perfect for late fall errands or pre-holiday travel prep. Temperatures remain steady through the weekend, with Saturday and Sunday bringing continued sunshine and light winds. Sunday’s high near 49°F will feel crisp but pleasant before a developing storm system begins to edge in from the Plains.
By Monday, clouds increase, and a few scattered showers may begin late in the day. Rain becomes more likely Monday night, with totals near 0.25 to 0.5 inches possible across northeast Wisconsin. Travelers along I-41 and Highway 29 should plan for reduced visibility and slick roads heading into Tuesday morning.
While snow isn’t in the immediate picture, long-range models are hinting at a winter-like pattern across the upper Midwest after November 25. Temperatures could fall sharply, with potential for early-season snow between Thanksgiving and the first days of December — a familiar seasonal tease for Wisconsin.
