MILWAUKEE --- Low pressure is expected to move into southeast Wisconsin Monday night, Oct. 28 --  with rain and snow likely starting after 10 p.m. A slushy coating to 2″ is possible north and west of Milwaukee. Ground temps will remain too warm to support snow on most roadways.

The National Weather Service issued a winter weather advisory for portions of southeast Wisconsin from 10 p.m. Monday, Oct. 28 through 7 a.m. Tuesday, Oct. 29. It impacts Dodge and Fond du Lac counties.

On Tuesday, Oct. 29, rain and snow showers will end early, leading to partly cloudy skies and chilly conditions with temps in the low to mid-40s.



On Wednesday, Oct. 30 scattered, light showers and even a few snow showers will be possible during the afternoon under mostly cloudy skies. Another storm system arrives on Thursday, with a greater chance of snow for the area. Conditions will improve by Friday afternoon.
