Today: A low pressure system moves out of the area today, causing a slight chance for showers early in the morning before partly cloudy conditions take over for the rest of the day and into the afternoon. A few patches of drizzle may occur. Temperatures will be in the low 70s for a majority of the day, with winds out of the west at 10 mph and gusts reaching 15 mph.
Tonight: Winds die down during the night to a light 5 mph from the west and 10 mph gusts at top speed. Temperatures will dip into the mid 60s with partly cloudy skies for most of the night, before turning to cloudy skies as dawn breaks.
Friday, June 20th: A heat wave is in store for Friday, with temperatures reaching into the low 80s by midafternoon and continuing with an overnight low of 68 degrees with high humidity. Sky cover will be partly sunny in the morning before turning to overcast with a chance for scattered thunderstorms in the afternoon hours that will move into the night.
Saturday, June 21st – Monday, June 23rd: Saturday continues with the heat wave, with a high temperature in the low 90s coupled with strong winds out of the south at 20 mph and gusts hitting 30 mph at their strongest. While temperatures over the weekend are expected to reach the 90s, “feels like” temperatures will soar into the hundreds due to humidity. Sunday shows no sign of reprieve from the hot weather, with temperatures maxing out in the mid 90s and sunny skies. Monday’s daily high hits in the low 90s again, but partly sunny skies and a chance for rain in the afternoon hours might finally break the heat wave and provide some rest for Milwaukee.
