Regions of Wisconsin

Wisconsin is too big for one forecast. The state splits into 3 regions, each with its own site — the same maps, the same live radar and the same climate record, scoped to the counties that actually share a sky. Every city in a region gets its own page underneath it.

The 3 Regions

Cream City · I-94 · The Lakefront

The lake runs this forecast. A southeast wind off 40-degree water holds the lakefront thirty degrees below Waukesha on a June afternoon — the cooler-near-the-lake line is a Milwaukee institution — and in winter the same water feeds the lake-enhanced snow bands that set up over the county and stall.

Four Lakes · I-39/90 · The Capital

Madison sits far enough from Lake Michigan that nothing moderates it, on the edge of the Driftless where the last glacier stopped. That means the full continental swing — 100 in July, 25 below in January — and a severe season that runs the southern counties hard. Barneveld is twenty miles west of here.

Titletown · I-41 · The Bay

The bay freezes and the lake does not, and the difference shows up in the forecast all winter. Cold air crossing open Lake Michigan piles snow on the counties east of the Fox, Lambeau sits in the lake-effect shadow more often than people think, and the spring ice-out on Winnebago is its own local season.
