Our first snowstorm of the season has left it’s mark on the area

The areas first snowstorm has come and gone with no serious problems. At least in the Fond du Lac area.

7-8 inches fell in the Fond du Lac area over a 24 hour period with most of that falling in the overnight hours Saturday, November 29, 2025.

In Fond du Lac County, residence seemed to adhere to the warnings to stay off the roads as very few calls came in regarding car crashes or cars in the ditch.

This wasn’t the case in surrounding counties however.

Multiple reports of jackknifed semis came in from Dodge, Washington, Outagamie and Brown County.

Those traveling by air fared much worse than those by car. In Chicago, 8.4 inches of snow fell at O’Hare airport, setting a record for the highest single calendar day snowfall in November.
About 300 flights into and out of O’Hare had been canceled by early Saturday, while about 1,600 had been delayed.

Relatively warm temperatures Sunday made cleanup of the snow easier and melted the small left over snow on many roads and sidewalks after the plows and shovels went through.

While a couple small disturbances with light snow look to pass over the area, it seems the Fond du Lac area will go without another major snowstorm for at least the next 10 days. The snow looks to hang around for awhile however as temperatures drop to below normal levels into the second week of December.
