Saturday
Saturday stays cold under polar air, with increasing mid and high clouds through the day. High temperatures reach the lower to mid 20s, with east to northeast winds at 5-10 mph. A 60% chance for light snow develops, especially across east-central Wisconsin, with snowfall amounts generally around a half inch or less, though brief travel impacts are possible.
Saturday Night
Snow tapers off Saturday night as polar high pressure builds into the region. Skies gradually clear, and temperatures fall into the mid teens, with north winds easing to 5-10 mph. Roads may become slick where light snow accumulates earlier in the evening.
Sunday
Sunday begins dry and cold as the surface high settles overhead. Morning sunshine gives way to increasing clouds late in the day. Afternoon highs reach the lower 20s, with light northwest winds at 5-10 mph. Conditions remain quiet through most of the day.
Sunday Night
Another weather disturbance arrives Sunday night, bringing a renewed burst of snow across much of southern Wisconsin. Snow becomes most likely during the evening, with temperatures falling into the mid to upper teens. Light east winds around 5-10 mph accompany the snow, which may lead to minor accumulations and hazardous travel.
Monday
Lingering clouds and spotty light snow end early Monday as the system exits. High temperatures recover slightly into the mid to upper 20s, with west winds at 10-15 mph. Any additional accumulation remains light, but untreated roads could stay slippery during the morning commute.
Tuesday
A transition toward a milder pattern begins Tuesday under a more zonal flow aloft. Skies are partly cloudy with chances of light rain showers, with highs climbing into the lower to mid 30s. Southwest winds increase to 10-20 mph, helping to moderate temperatures compared to the weekend.
Wednesday
Wednesday continues the warming trend, with highs reaching the mid to upper 30s. South to southwest winds remain breezy at 15-25 mph. Skies are partly cloudy, and while most of the day stays dry, the next system approaching from the west will be monitored for late-week precipitation chances.
