DISCUSSION
Issued at 1057 PM CDT Fri Oct 16 2026

Cold Tonight into Saturday Morning...A prevailing high pressure system has brought cooler Canadian air over the forecast area. The combination of the colder air, clear skies, and calm winds will lead to chilly overnight/morning low temperatures ranging from the mid to upper 20s for most locations north and west of the Fox Valley, with low to mid 30s in the Fox Valley to the lakeshore. A Freeze Warning remains in effect for central, east-central, and portions of far northeast WI, and a Frost Advisory in effect for Door County, where the interior and southern sections of the county will see frost. The Freeze Warning and Frost Advisory will remain in effect until 9 AM Saturday.

Dry and Breezy this Weekend...The forecast area will remain under the influence of surface high pressure and weak mid-level ridging for the weekend. Return southwesterly flow will also be present this weekend with a tightened pressure gradient at times. This will lead to breezy conditions, mainly during the afternoons with gusts to 20- 30 mph. Conditions will also be dry and mostly sunny with temperatures rebounding a little, highs in the 50s for Saturday, and low 60s on Sunday.

Next Week...High pressure and mid-level ridging will remain in place for the first half of the work week, keeping conditions dry.
Although chances continue to decrease, guidance indicates the next chance for precip would be sometime midweek from the southern tip of a northern stream system. Mid-level ridging and high pressure then return for the remainder of the week. This pattern will cause temperatures to remain above normal and gradually warm each day by a couple degrees, potentially reaching the low 70s for some spots by Thursday of next week. With the return to above normal temperatures and a prolonged dry period, will need to monitor fuels across drought stricken areas of northern WI for the potential of an increased wildfire risk.
