Today: The 5-Day Weather Forecast November 20, 2025 commences within the grey of clouds at 41 when the clock strikes nine. Remaining beneath its blanket of clouds throughout the day, Milwaukee warms a bit from days prior, past November averages, to a high of 48. Although sprinkles cannot be ruled out today, expect any stray rain drops to be short-lived and minimal. Winds prove minimal as well, averaging 6 mph with an occasional gust up to 18 mph.

Tonight: Precipitation chances stick around into the night and taper off into tomorrow morning. Thanks to a high-pressure system wedged between two stormy low-pressure systems, little to no rain penetrates into our area. Contrary to diminishing clouds, we keep cozy in the 40s until late night, when we hit 39 for a low.

Tomorrow: Ending the work week, the high pressure influences the weather, setting up a day with a regular November feeling. Temperatures head back towards the mid-40s, while clouds quietly exit to the east. Winds steadily flow about Milwaukee to an average of 7 mph. Underneath tomorrow’s starry skies, winds die completely, as we cool down to 28.

Weekend: Looking ahead toward the weekend, temperatures on Saturday climb to 47 but shoot much higher to 56 for Sunday. Lows corroborate this heatwave with temperatures for Saturday and Sunday at 39 and 34, respectively. Changing weather systems move winds from the south, launching this anomaly of warmth towards Wisconsin. Despite average 5 mph winds Saturday, breezes strengthen into 9 mph with 17 mph gusts possible Sunday. Clouds are also somewhat to blame for the cooler temperatures on Saturday, as over the course of the day, clouds gather above by nightfall. Rain chances might return Saturday with another round of drizzles, but again, this would amount to very little. Sunday, however, stays dry with no clouds in the sky.

Extended: Further ahead, we might get drenched by a Monday night storm. As of right now, models disagree on many aspects of Monday though, including timing of the system’s arrival, temperatures before and after, and intensity. We will have better information on this in the upcoming days. Stay up to date to know the conditions for your travel going to this holiday season.
