Forecasters at the National Weather Service in Milwaukee are maintaining a consistent forecast of a 5-9″ snowfall in Sheboygan County from an Alberta Clipper-type weather system moving through today into Friday. While much of southeastern Wisconsin can expect 4 or 5 inches to accumulate, Lake Michigan could amp up totals here to as high as 9 inches before snow abates by midday Friday. A Winter Weather Advisory was issued to be in effect from 9 a.m. today until noon tomorrow. To our north, a Winter Storm Warning covers those same hours, with a general 5-8 inch snowfall, potentially reaching between 7 and 10 inches near the Manitowoc, Kewaunee and Door County lakeshores.

Home buyers in Sheboygan County were paying around 14% more for a home last month than they were in November of 2023, an increase that exceeds most of the state of Wisconsin. That’s according to statistics released Thursday morning by the Wisconsin Realtors Association. The same report indicates that statewide, the inventory of available homes remains very tight even as solid demand conditions persist. That mismatch is behind the increase in home prices, with the median statewide increase coming in at 10.8%.

Forecasters are expressing more confidence in their predictions of higher snowfall totals in Sheboygan County as well as northern Ozaukee County. Rates of snowfall which began around 9 a.m. had been between a half and three-quarters of an inch per hour, and those rates could increase to around an inch per hour tonight as Lake Michigan begins contributing its moisture to the system.

The first snowstorm of the season is pretty much in-the-books after depositing around a half foot and more on Sheboygan County, with some 30 vehicles going off area roadways as a result.

For the third consecutive year, Sheboygan has been named a host of the P1 offshore Triple Crown race series. The event on August 8-10, 2025 will be the second leg in the series, with the first taking place in New Orleans, and the final in St. Petersburg, Florida. Each event delivers six races with a special prize fund awarded to champions in each class. In addition, next year’s event will include the P1 AquaX Jet Ski competition among the many races offshore of Sheboygan.

City of Sheboygan residents are being given a heads-up on schedule changes for garbage and recycling during the holidays.
