--First Call Snowfall Forecast: Saturday PM thru Monday AM--

A major winter storm is expected to hit the Badger State beginning Saturday afternoon/evening, continuing throughout the day on Sunday, before wrapping up by Monday during the late morning hours. A Colorado Low is expected to develop, and eject off to the NE. A low pressure that originates from that area of the United States is known for bringing big snows to Wisconsin, and that looks to all play out this weekend. The exact track of the low pressure will be crucial in who sees the heaviest snowfall, which in this case, will be over a foot of snow. Gusty NW winds are expected throughout the duration of the winter storm, which will likely lead to near blizzard conditions at times. Travel will be very difficult to potentially impossible throughout the day on Sunday.

This has been a very complex storm to monitor, and forecast for. It almost gives me the feels of the April 2018 Blizzard, if anyone remembers that. This looks to be, by far, the largest snowfall event for many this season across the state, especially for those in the yellow shaded area. No, I am not hyping this up. Model data has been showing a potent winter storm several days now. There will likely be a rain/snow line somewhere around far southern WI/northern IL, which will need to be watched closely. Drier air will also need to watched on the northern side. Snowfall rates of up to 2"/hr are possible for those seeing the heaviest snowfall.

A large swath of 12-18"of snowfall, potentially even more than that, is forecasted for all of those in yellow. This includes much of central and eastern WI, along with portions of western WI and northern portions of SW WI. 8-12" is expected to the north and south of there for those highlighted in purple. Snowfall totals begin to drop off to the north and south of there, down to 4-8". There are also some folks included in either a 1-3" or 3-6" range, which is mainly across NW WI where lower accumulations are expected.

Expect changes throughout the next 24-48 hours as the newest model guidance comes in. I would start considering altering any travel plans that you may have on Sunday. It is not going to be a day where you want to be out and about running errands or travelling. My Second Call Snowfall Forecast for this major winter storm, and potential blizzard, will be issued tomorrow (Friday) morning/early afternoon. Stay tuned for that.

There’s now a one county difference between a Winter Weather Advisory and a Severe Thunderstorm Watch. How much more WI can you get?!  The watch will last until midnight for much of southern and SE parts of the state. I will be monitoring the radar frequently and post any warnings that do happen to get issued.

--Final Call Snowfall Forecast: Thursday PM thru Saturday AM--

A winter storm is now expected to develop late this evening, into the overnight hours, and heading into Friday. A narrow corridor throughout the state of moderate to heavy snowfall accumulations now appears likely, with the best chance to see 4-8" of snowfall across SW, south-central, and portions of central WI. Some snow showers could linger into Friday evening as well, but most of the action should be wrapping up by Friday afternoon. Model guidance has had a slight wobble back NW with the most recent data, and that reflects my final map for this event.

There is going to be a SHARP CUTOFF in amounts between locations across the state with this. Meaning, any more wobbles would likely alter these snowfall totals by quite a bit. I will be providing updates throughout the event on the page, so stay tuned to the page. 4-8" with the POTENTIAL to see some higher amounts depending on where the heaviest banding sets up, is likely for those in pink. 3-6" with isolated 7" to the north, NW, and SE of the heaviest band of snow, which includes NE WI, along with other portions of the state as shown on the map highlighted in red. 1-3" is expected for those in blue. Northern Iron County could see a tad more snow than 3" depending on how the lake effect sets up. 0-1" is expected for those in turquoise.

This has been a very challenging event to forecast for, especially seeing as data has changed so much over the past few days. Rain will start for areas further south, which will eventually changer over to all snow. Impacts are likely for travel, including throughout the day tomorrow (Friday), and especially for the commute in the morning, as the heaviest snow does look to fall overnight into the morning hours. This will cause issues. Consider leaving early. Remember that I am not here to hype this up, but rather prepare you for what I see to come. Now, let's see what happens! This will be my final map issuance for this event.

01/15/2026

ALERT DAY conditions are expected Sunday night through Tuesday as a blast of Arctic air moves over Wisconsin/the Midwest. Monday morning wind chills could be as cold as -35 degrees with day time highs remaining in the single digits.

--Second Call Snowfall Forecast: Thursday PM thru Saturday PM--

A prolonged clipper event is still expected to bring a period of accumulating snowfall beginning Thursday afternoon into evening, continuing throughout the overnight hours, into the day on Friday, and potentially even lasting until Friday night. Lake enhanced snow will continue falling on Saturday. Winds could gust up to 35-40 m.p.h. at times, which will likely cause blowing and drifting of snow. Behind this, very cold air is expected by Sunday, with highs only in the single digits for many of us.

The main changes from the First Call Forecast include a slight shift north in the 1-3", which now includes most of southern and SE WI now. I also shifted the 5-8" a tad further south and west. 8-12" is still expected for northern to central Iron County, along with possibly far NW Vilas County where prolonged lake effect snow is likely in addition to the clipper. 5-8" is expected for basically all of the Northwoods now (Rhinelander and north). This now includes a good chunk of NW WI too. 3-6" is expected to the south of there for a good chunk of the state, including western, central, and eastern WI. 1-3" is likely for portions of SW WI, and most of southern/SE WI.

Remember that this snow is going to be light and fluffy in nature for the most part, so it will likely be higher than a typical 10:1 ratio for most of us. Some model guidance has been trying to increase totals down into central and eastern WI too, so some updates are possible as we get closer to the event occurring. My Final Call Snowfall Forecast will be issued tomorrow (Thursday) morning.

12/27/2025

Winds are going to be turning out the northwest throughout the day on Sunday and picking up in speed, remaining gusty through Monday morning. Here's a look at some of our expected wind gusts.

12/27/2025

Rain will transition over to snow throughout the day on Sunday with most of the area seeing accumulating snow beginning Sunday evening, overnight into the first half of Monday. Here's a look at our latest forecast for possible snow totals.

There's two big factors: the track along with when temperatures cool to freezing (32). Both of these will determine when snow falls and who could see more or less snow (a trend further south would bring more snow to southern Wisconsin).

Other than the snow, strong gusts are going to toss around any snow we do see beginning Sunday evening through Monday morning. Gusts could be up to 50 miles per hour causing blowing/drifting snow, possible power outages and deteriorating road conditions.

--Second Call Snowfall Forecast: Sunday thru Monday AM--

A rather potent winter storm is expected to hit the Badger State beginning tomorrow (Sunday) late morning, continuing throughout the day, switching over from a mix/rain over to heavy snow from west to east as the arctic front moves throughout the region. As expected, the NWS and local news media outlets are now catching onto the higher totals. Weather apps have gone up significantly in totals since 24 hrs ago as well. Many folks are currently under a Winter Storm Watch; however, those will be changed over to warnings by later today. Wind gusts up to 50 m.p.h. late tomorrow evening into Monday morning will set the stage for blizzard-like conditions at times. In fact, I would not be surprised if a Blizzard Warning is issued for some counties, as criteria will be close enough, if not met.

The main change that you probably notice from the First Call is a significant shift south in the 6-10" area of snow. Instead of only including the Northwoods, it now includes basically all of western, central, and eastern WI. All other snowfall categories have also shifted south, and I have now added an area of 12"+ of snow for portions of Ashland, Iron, and Vilas Counties where lake enhanced snowfall is likely. 9-12" is now expected for most of NW WI, with the exception of far NW Douglas County where 6-10" is expected near Superior. Portions of northern WI are also included in this region.

To the south of there, a broad 6-10" area is forecasted. This includes the central part of the state. To the south of there, 3-6" is forecasted now for south-central WI and portions of southern WI. 1-3" is now expected as well from say Madison to Milwaukee south to the WI/IL state line. This is an increase in totals for basically everyone since my first post yesterday on this.

Travel will become difficult to near-impossible at times with the wind gusts combined with the heavy snow tomorrow PM into Monday morning. Now would be the time to begin altering travel plans if at all possible, during this time. I will be issuing my Final Call Snowfall Forecast either this evening or early tomorrow morning, so stay tuned for updates!

--First Call Snowfall Forecast: Sunday PM thru Monday--

Over the past 24 hours, even the past 12 hours, modeling data has really strengthened the system (or now, what looks to be a winter storm) along the arctic front late this weekend. Yes, your weather app may not show this yet, and the NWS may have lower totals than this. However, I have a feeling that as we go throughout the day today, that will be changing. Winter Storm Watches will likely already be needed by this evening/early tomorrow morning for some of us.

What will start out as a mix, or even some rain on Sunday, is expected to transition over to moderate, even heavy snow, at times later in the day on Sunday, overnight, and into Monday morning as an arctic front sweeps through the Badger State. Travel will become hazardous during this time. For my first issuance, I am calling for 9-12"+ for portions of Ashland, Iron, Vilas, Forest, and Florence Counties. You might think this is bullish, but these are the areas that will be seeing lake enhanced snowfall ON TOP of the snow we will already be getting from the storm itself. 6-10" is likely to the south and west of there for the remainder of the Northwoods and NW WI.

To the south of there, it looks like 3-6" could fall as of now with isolated 7" totals in some spots, especially the further north you go in that area. 1-3" to the south of there for portions of south-central WI, southern, and SW WI. 0-1" from there south to the WI/IL border for the remainder most of SE WI, along with the remainder of SW and southern WI.

I will be issuing my Second Call Snowfall Forecast for this winter storm by tomorrow (Saturday) morning, so stay tuned for updates.

--Precipitation Type: Thursday PM thru Friday--

Here is an early look at who could POSSIBLY see what for precipitation type late Thursday (Christmas Day) into Friday. The set-up here is an arctic high up in Canada followed by warmer air to the south trying to shift north. With these two clashing together, it will produce a system in the middle, featuring the winter smorgasbord (i.e. a little bit of all precipitation types, frozen and liquid).

The best chance for seeing mainly snow is across far northern WI, and portions of NW WI where a brief period of icing looks possible at first, followed to changeover of wet snow throughout the day on Friday. A rain-snow-ice mix is looking likely for a good chunk of the state, with a decent amount of ICE possible depending on temperatures aloft and how close we are to freezing here at the surface. Most of SW, southern, and SE WI will stay all rain, and concerns are lower there.

There is still a lot of uncertainty with this, as like I said in the previous paragraph, air temperatures aloft and at the surface will be crucial in determining even the slightest difference between rain and ICE/ICE and snow. I will have another updated map out for this tomorrow (Christmas Eve Day), which will likely also feature a snowfall/ice map. Stay tuned!
