Today: We awaken to mostly sunny skies today with temperatures in the mid 50s. While it may look nice out, breezier northeast winds are on tap with gusts up to 15-20 mph until the afternoon. A surface high-pressure system that’s positioned northwest of our area keeps warmer temperatures from filtering in, preventing temps from exceeding 60 degrees for the day. Winds calm during the afternoon hours as clouds develop overhead. The main daylight hours look to keep us dry as temperatures peak at a high of 60.
Tonight: As evening falls, northeast winds prevail with returning gusts around 15-20 mph. Rain chances rise later in the evening as isolated showers move in from west of our region. We may see our first sprinkle of rain around 9 p.m., though the system doesn’t look to fully affect our area until around midnight. Low temperatures fall to 53 degrees as rainy skies carry into the overnight.
Tomorrow: Showers look to clear to begin our Wednesday, though partly cloudy skies stick around through the majority of the day. High pressure overhead finally begins to take place, clearing rain chances for the day. Northeast winds stick around, though calmer around 5-10 mph through the day. Winds cater in cooler temperatures leading to a high of 59 expected in Milwaukee. More clouds filter in as the day progresses, where mostly cloudy skies take hold for the evening. Temperatures fall to 53 degrees for the night.
Extended: Thursday begins with dry conditions and partly cloudy skies, but make sure you keep an umbrella on hand! Current models are in disagreement of rain chances and timing through the day Thursday. As warm air attempts to be catered into the region, we may see some rain develop as we reach the back end of the high-pressure system. Temperatures look to warm up again, reaching highs in the 60s while winds shift from east to southeast. The evening will close with temperatures falling to 57 degrees as the chance of showers linger. Friday looks to be our warmest day of the week, with temperatures reaching 70 degrees as a high. We can expect a chance of showers nearing the afternoon hours on Friday, yet we may see more as the day progresses. Saturday could be a wash out with a low-pressure system entering our area. Temperatures look to be warmer than average, with temperatures nearing 70 again on Saturday. Models look to be in disagreement with the timing and position of our next rain system, so make sure to stay up to date with the most recent forecasts! Lows on Saturday look to fall to 60 degrees before that low pressure kicks in for the early week.
