MILWAUKEE, WI β€” Halloween is right around the corner, and Wisconsin's first snowfall is already in the books. For the Oct. 29 snowfall, the further west you were, the more snow you saw.

In places like Baraboo and Dodgeville, residents broke out the shovels and snowblowers after nearly four inches of snow fell. Folks out in Waukesha saw about an inch of snow for a short time.

And now, the same weather pattern that brought us the first snow flurries of Winter 2019 is coming back to haunt us. According to the National Weather Service, between one to five inches of snow is expected Wednesday evening through Halloween on Thursday, with the highest amounts towards southeastern Wisconsin.

The National Weather Service says snow accumulations may impact the Thursday morning commute as well as the potentially early Thursday evening Halloween commute.

While the snow is likely on its way, officials say there is high uncertainty with this weather system, however at this point one to five inches of snow is the expected amount for a majority of southern Wisconsin.
