Green Bay, WI – Parts of northern Wisconsin and communities along Lake Michigan could see accumulating snow Thursday night into Friday morning, November 13, with localized areas facing the possibility of 2 inches or more and slippery conditions during the morning commute.
According to the National Weather Service in Green Bay, confidence is increasing that lake effect rain showers will transition to snow later Thursday, November 12, particularly across far northern Wisconsin and areas near Lake Michigan.
Where 2 Inches of Snow Could Fall Forecasters say the heaviest lake effect snow bands could produce accumulations of at least 2 inches in isolated locations, although most communities are expected to receive little or no measurable snowfall.
Areas of concern include portions of northern Wisconsin near Ironwood, Land O' Lakes and Florence, along with communities near the Lake Michigan shoreline.
The National Weather Service forecast highlights localized 20% to 30% probabilities of receiving at least 2 inches of snow through noon Friday.
Along the lakeshore, communities including Sturgeon Bay, Kewaunee and areas northeast of Green Bay could experience snow showers, with amounts varying significantly depending on where the bands develop.
Friday Morning Travel Concerns The National Weather Service warns that some roads could become snow covered or slippery during Friday's morning commute, especially where heavier snow bands persist.
However, warm ground temperatures could limit accumulation, creating uncertainty about how much snow will stick to roads and other surfaces.
Forecasters also caution that lake effect snow bands can shift, producing substantially different conditions across relatively short distances.
The forecast covers noon Thursday through noon Friday, November 13.
Residents traveling across northern Wisconsin or along Lake Michigan should monitor updated forecasts and local road conditions before heading out Friday morning.
