Southeast Wisconsin weather: Lake effect snow Friday and Saturday

The main forecast focus lies on the potential for lake effect snow Friday and now potentially Saturday. As the wind shifts slightly northeast, a band of lake effect snow should come onshore tomorrow morning.

There is a small chance it initially comes ashore north of Milwaukee early in the morning, then progresses its way south through midday, wrapping up in the afternoon.

Around 2-4" of snow is possible from Milwaukee to Kenosha, with lighter amounts north and west.

Computer models are hinting at a return of lake effect snow on Saturday, with some additional accumulation possible.
