Wisconsin is waking up to a cold 26 degrees in Green Bay, but the air won’t stay quiet for long. A milder push is building this morning, and gusty southwest winds will start stirring by midday.
According to the National Weather Service in Green Bay, highs climb to 49 degrees today under partly sunny skies. Southwest winds increase to 14 mph, with gusts approaching 29 mph. It will feel like a brief spring tease along the Fox River and near Lambeau Field.
Clouds thicken tonight as temperatures fall to 17 degrees. Saturday brings a sharp change. Highs struggle to reach 23 degrees, and a 40% chance of snow develops late morning into the afternoon. Light accumulation is possible before skies gradually clear Saturday night. Lows plunge to around 9 degrees.
Even a light coating could create slick stretches on US-41, I-43, and local bridges. This is peak flash-freeze season. Any moisture from today’s thaw may refreeze quickly once colder air settles in. Plan extra time if traveling Saturday afternoon into early Sunday.
Sunday turns sunny but cold, with highs near 25 degrees. Monday moderates slightly to 35 under partly sunny skies. By Tuesday, a slight chance of snow returns with highs near 40, signaling a gradual transition into March.
Midweek temperatures climb into the mid-40s, and longer-range trends favor above-normal readings heading into next weekend. Spring warmth is inching closer to northeast Wisconsin.
