When Will Wisconsin See the 1st Snow of the Season? See the Dates

Once Fall arrives, you know that flakes falling from the sky isn't that far away in Wisconsin. The Weather Channel is going out on a limb and predicting the first snowfall and it's not that far away either.

I saw this interesting outlook on the first accumulating snowfall for different parts of America from The Weather Channel and it's jam-packed with information. Their prediction for Wisconsin's part of America is based on a number of factors including the first snowfall and more importantly the average first day of snowfall. Here's the average date predicting the day you can expect accumulating snowfall of at least .1 inches.

Prediction - November 6, 2024

I decided to lean into some deep data from the National Weather Service and compare their numbers and they somewhat agree. Here's a breakdown for numerous Wisconsin cities and towns and the date of the first snow on average.

Here's the historic earliest and latest snows for many Wisconsin places.

It obviously matters whether you're in the northern part of Wisconsin or further south in the state when it comes to snowfall. One way or another, you can expect measurable snow sooner rather than later in Wisconsin. It's that time of year so prepare.
