We’ll see mostly cloudy skies to start the marathon and half marathon Sunday but skies will become mostly sunny with winds out of south and southeast at 10-15 mph.

If you’re taking part in the 5K on Saturday at 8:30, expect mostly cloudy skies and 54 degrees with southeast winds at 10 mph. We’ll keep you updated and Good Luck!

Wow it was HOT yesterday in the region with temperatures reaching the triple digits in many locations in Nebraska, Iowa and Minnesota.  Minneapolis hit 98° and Sioux City, Iowa reached 106° which is the highest temperature ever for the month of May.

That hot weather impacted the western portion of Wisconsin as well with highs in the low 90s in Eau Claire and La Crosse.

It’ll be a beautiful day today with another tomorrow and right now the Marathon weekend in Green Bay looks nice too.  We’ll be updating the all-important  Sunday morning forecast frequently until race time.  Enjoy the day!

Snow fell, heavy at times on Monday resulting in slippery roads and travel difficulties.  Most of the snow fell in the afternoon hours before diminishing in the evening.  Below are some snowfall totals.

Winter Storm Elijah was a two-part storm with most of the snow falling on Thursday. Total snow totals for the storm ended up in the projected 4 to 6 inch range. Below are some totals courtesy of the National Weather Service.

Winter Storm Alan arrived Sunday morning; the snow continued through the day and made Green Bay look like…well, Green Bay for the national television audience on Sunday night football.  The snow was light for the most part and started falling when temperatures were a bit above freezing so amounts were held down but 3 to 6 inches fell in most areas.

A great website to check out the snow totals of any day can be seen by clicking here.

If you’re wondering just how official measurements are taken and why the totals aren’t the same as in your backyard,  Meteorologist Phil DeCastro got to the bottom of it.  Check out his report.

Below are some snow totals from Alan but since reports vary even in different areas of the city, a more comprehensive list can be found at the Green Bay National Weather Service’s website.  Also Milwaukee’s website

Slow down this morning, it is pea soupy out there.  There’s a dense fog advisory in effect this morning with visibilities down to a quarter mile or less in many areas. Check our weather cameras to see what the driving conditions are where you’re going.

The best chance of showers will be from 4 pm to 10 pm and after that skies will clear and we’ll finally see sunshine tomorrow with highs near 48.

Although temperatures will be well above normal, we won’t set a record today (Record high in Green Bay is 62).  There were numerous record highs set yesterday in the nation; most in Texas.  Here’s a nice place to find record highs each day in the nation  

Enjoy the next 2 days because a powerful cold front pushes through the state late tomorrow and we’ll feel the result on Friday morning.

After dense fog this morning the rest of the big travel day looks great with a high near 58°.  If you’re traveling through the air you may want to check ahead on your flight as there were cancellations and delays with flights going into and out of Chicago.

We may set a new record high tomorrow for Thanksgiving as breezy southwest winds bring in temperatures near 60° .

It’ll be downright blustery on Friday with strong northwest winds and highs near 37.

Unseasonably mild weather will continue for a few more days with high temperatures between 13 and 17 degrees warmer than normal (the normal high is 40°)  A cold front will impact us as we head into the long Holiday weekend.

We can expect fair weather through the weekend courtesy of a high pressure area which will drift west to east over the state.  High temperature today will be near 42° with a northeast wind at 5-10 mph but winds turn to the south tomorrow and temperatures will top out near 50° for the weekend.

It’ll be a mild start to the gun deer season with temperatures near 30° and patchy fog at sunrise, otherwise mostly clear skies.  Actually there’s not much difference in the opening day forecast no matter where you travel in the state.  As for Thanksgiving, it’s still looking nice. Have a great day!

Very quiet weather continues with highs in the 40s and lows near 30.  So let’s take a look at a couple of  “Big Day” forecasts.  First is the Gun Deer opener on Saturday.  Things are holding with partly to mostly sunny skies at 7 am and temperatures near 30.  For Thanksgiving Day (and remember this is a long way out) right now it looks mostly cloudy and a high near 44.  A storm on the east coast may be impacting New England on Turkey Day and could even bring us a cool down as the day wears; so check back for updates. Have a great day!
