Milwaukee Weather: AM light snow and freezing drizzle

Forecast from FOX6 Chief Meteorologist Rob Haswell

We’re squeezing out one more round of light snow Wednesday morning, but this is more nuisance than headline less than an inch for most. A quick shot of some patchy freezing drizzle possibly mid-morning as well.
The story flips fast this week as warmer air starts pushing in, and by Wednesday night we’re talking light rain instead of snow.
That milder air plus melting snow could also spark some fog into Thursday morning, so visibility may be the bigger issue than precipitation.
Temperatures climb steadily into the weekend. Saturday looks like the pick of the week, but how warm we get will depend on how much snow is still hanging around.
