Student Author OverviewWhat's This?

Weather varies from one day to the next in Milwaukee. Weather can also vary depending on how far you are from Lake Michigan. Some places closer to the lake will be cooler and get more rain and definitely more ice or snowstorms, whereas other areas will not get any snow at all. Even though the weather can change quite quickly, Wisconsin is lucky that it does not have an annual hurricane season or tsunamis.

Students should be prepared for hot temperatures at the beginning of the school year and freezing conditions by the end of October—it often snows around Halloween. By the end of March, the weather can either be sunny and warm or still bitter cold. Most years, the winters are not filled with snow, but rather ice and bitter, freezing winds. Students need to be prepared for whatever the weather may bring because it will bring it! The seasons do offer a lot of different outside activity opportunities, such as rock climbing, hiking, sledding, snowshoeing, swimming, and water skiing.

Weather in Milwaukee

Here in Wisconsin, we have a lot of snow during the winter. Alverno is pretty good letting students know when classes cancel ahead a time thru via text message and via email. When it rains,sometimes i have a difficult time finding a parking spot closer to the building where i have class so i wont get wet.

Living in Wisconsin, the weather is awful during the winter. It is hard to get anywhere in this city when it has been snowing the way that it does here most years. Alverno is very good with plowing the parking lots, the area streets, and the sidewalks so snow has never been much of a problem when it comes so getting to class easily and on time.
