Fire Weather Planning Forecast for Southern Wisconsin
National Weather Service Milwaukee/Sullivan WI
327 PM CST Fri Nov 28 2025

.DISCUSSION...

Nearly calm wind and dry weather expected into this evening.
A long duration accumulating snowfall event is expected to begin
late tonight into Saturday morning, continuing through Saturday
night and tapering off Sunday morning. Widespread snow
accumulations of 8 to 12 inches are expected, with some locally
higher amounts possible towards the Lake Michigan shoreline due
to lake enhancement.

As the snow gradually wraps up into Sunday morning, gusty
northwest winds arrive, delivering an arctic airmass to our
region. Daytime high temperatures remain below freezing next week
(approaching the freezing mark Wednesday, well below it the rest
of the week though) allowing the snow cover to linger.
