Rain-to-Snow Switch Sunday Night in SE Wisconsin as Temperatures Plunge

  • Rain is likely much of Sunday with totals potentially reaching one‑half to three‑quarters of an inch before colder air arrives late.
  • Temperatures are forecast to fall quickly from the 40s to the teens by early Monday, raising black ice concerns on wet roads.
  • Light snow is expected overnight into Monday in the southeast, while northwest and northern parts of the state could see heavier snow, possibly 6 inches or more.
