Spring has come to Wisconsin – and the weather is finally starting to show it
Wisconsin warms up as spring officially arrives
It’s finally feeling like spring in southeastern Wisconsin as temperatures rise and snow begins to melt.
It’s officially spring, as of Friday, March 20 – at least according to astronomical seasons. And the weather in southeastern Wisconsin seems to be getting on the same page.
Temperatures in the Milwaukee area March 20 are expected to be in the mid-50s, with the potential to reach 60 degrees. On Saturday, March 21, temperatures will likely rise to the low to mid-60s, said Aidan Kuroski, a meteorologist with the National Weather Service in Milwaukee/Sullivan.
Kuroski said if the conditions are right, it’s possible March 21 may get even warmer.
“I’m not going to competely rule out 70 – although I think it’s unlikely,” he said.
For many Wisconsinites, the spring-like temperatures are a welcome change after the previous weekend’s blizzard that brought more than two feet of snow to parts of the state.
Over the weekend, any lingering snow in southeastern Wisconsin is likely to fully melt, Kuroski said.
Temperatures will get a little cooler Sunday, March 22, in the mid 40s and low 50s, and by Monday, March 23 likely in the low 40s – primarily due to onshore winds from Lake Michigan, Kuroski said. But it should warm slightly again by Tuesday, March 24.
“During these warm spells, the wind direction – especially for Milwaukee, anywhere close to the lake – the wind direction is massive for what we’re capable of reaching for high temperatures,” Kuroski said.
Easterly winds, he said, will bring in cool air from Lake Michigan, while winds coming from the south or west will bring warmer temps.
The weather should stay mostly dry as well, with a slight possibility for some rain Sunday, March 22, and potentially a round of rain in the middle of the following week, Kuroski said.

Packers award $100K in grants to help launch girls flag football teams in Wisconsin high schools
GREEN BAY, Wis. (WBAY) – The Green Bay Packers are boosting support for girls flag football in Wisconsin high schools, awarding $100,000 in grants to help schools launch new teams.
The team said 20 schools across the state were selected to receive $5,000 each to start girls flag football programs.
Six of the grant recipients are in our area: Freedom High School, Green Bay East, Kimberly, Little Chute, Neenah and Southern Door.
Along with the funding, the Packers are also providing participating schools with protective headbands and a flag football equipment starter kit to help new programs get started.
The goal is to build momentum for girls flag football as participation grows, with the long-term aim of the sport becoming a sanctioned Wisconsin high school sport.
Applications are already open for next year’s round of grants.
