After a quiet day with highs near 30, tonight is clear and chilly with lows in the teens and wind chills in the single digits. However, the wind shifts to the SW late tonight and we warm into the lower 30s by 7am.
Wednesday is mostly sunny in the morning, then increasing clouds, breezy and mild with a high of 38. After 5pm, light rain/snow mix moves in that will change to all snow overnight and into Thursday morning. Right now we are looking at 2-3” of snow across SE Wisconsin with isolated 4” amounts. Then it gets cold and windy on Thursday.
The afternoon will see some sun, but the high is only 17 and a NW wind gusting to 35 mph with drop wind chills to near 0 all afternoon. Thursday night is the coldest night of the season so far with a low of -2 in Milwaukee and -10 inland. It will be the first time we are below zero this winter in Milwaukee. Wind chills will be to -20 by Friday morning.
