SE Wisconsin Weather: Steamy to Stormy Saturday
BUT IT’S ALSO GOING TO BE HOT AND MUGGY. BUT WE ARE LOOKING AT AN IMPACT DAY BOTH TODAY AND TOMORROW. THE POTENTIAL FOR HEAVY RAIN IS LOOKING LIKELY. I NEED TO SWAP THAT. IT’S INTO MONDAY. IT LOOKS LIKE NOW WE COULD SEE A FEW SHOWERS LINGER INTO THE EARLY PART OF THE WORKWEEK, BUT HEAVY RAIN IS LOOKING LIKELY BECAUSE OF THAT. A FLOOD WATCH IS IN EFFECT FOR OUR NORTHERN AND WESTERN COUNTIES. OUR NORTHWESTERN COUNTIES. UNTIL MONDAY MORNING OR EVEN THROUGH MONDAY MORNING. IT’S THE AREA SHADED IN GREEN HERE ON THIS MAP THAT HAS THE BEST CHANCE TO SEE RAINFALL TOTALS OF FOUR INCHES OR HIGHER, BUT A LOT OF SOUTHEASTERN WISCONSIN HAS THE POTENTIAL TO SEE 2 TO 4IN OF RAIN. NOTICE RIGHT ALONG THE LAKEFRONT THAT’S IN THE GREEN. THAT’S LESS THAN AN INCH OR AN INCH AND A HALF. I DO, THOUGH, THINK THAT WE COULD SEE SOME HEAVY RAIN JUST ABOUT EVERYWHERE. EVERYONE HAS THE POTENTIAL TO SEE SOME STRONG STORMS LATER THIS EVENING AND OVERNIGHT. TONIGHT, ALMOST ALL OF SOUTHEASTERN WISCONSIN IS IN THE YELLOW. THAT’S A RISK. TWO OUT OF FIVE FOR SEVERE WEATHER IN TERMS OF SEVERE WEATHER TODAY, DAMAGING WINDS IS GOING TO BE THE BIGGEST CONCERN WITH STORMS AS THEY MOVE INTO SOUTHEASTERN WISCONSIN. THERE’S STILL SOME UNCERTAINTY WITH TIMING, BUT IT LOOKS LIKE WE’RE DRY UNTIL ABOUT 4:00 BEFORE 4:00. IT’S GOING TO BE HOT AND MUGGY, KEEPING AN EYE ON STORMS THAT ARE LIKELY GOING TO FORM INTO A LINE STRETCHING FROM THE TWIN CITIES DOWN TOWARDS OMAHA RIGHT NOW, WE’RE DRY. IT’S NOT GOING TO LAST ALL DAY LONG, THOUGH. NOTICE ON FUTURECAST, THIS MODEL ALREADY HAS QUITE A COMPLEX. IT’S NOT QUITE THAT DEVELOPED JUST YET, BUT AS WE HEAD THROUGH THE DAY, THIS LINE OF STORMS IS GOING TO SLOWLY MOVE ACROSS THE STATE BY 2:00. WE’RE STARTING TO SEE SOME ACTIVITY CLOSER TO OUR WESTERN COUNTIES AND IN OUR NORTHERN COUNTIES. THEN THIS LINE STARTS TO FALL APART. I DO THINK THIS AFTERNOON INTO THE EVENING, AFTER 3 OR 4:00, EVERYONE HAS A CHANCE FOR RAIN, HAS THE CHANCE FOR A FEW STRONGER STORMS. BUT IT IS POSSIBLE THAT THIS LINE STARTS TO FALL APART OVERHEAD. BUT IT ALSO LOOKS LIKE AFTER TEN 11:00 WE COULD SEE SOME MORE STORMS DEVELOP INTO A LINE AND ROLL THROUGH. AND NOTICE AS WE HEAD THROUGH THE DAY TOMORROW, EVERYONE HAS A CHANCE TO SEE NOT WIDESPREAD RAIN ALL DAY LONG, BUT ROUNDS AND POCKETS OF HEAVY RAIN. SO THE BOTTOM LINE FOR YOUR WEEKEND WE’RE GOING TO BE SUNNY, HOT AND HUMID FOR THE FIRST HALF OF THE DAY. THEN OUR STORM CHANCES INCREASE. FOR A LOT OF US, AFTER 3 OR 4:00 IN THE AFTERNOON TOMORROW, IT’S TOUGH TO TIME OUT WHEN WE’LL SEE STORMS RIGHT NOW, BUT WE HAVE ON AND OFF STORM CHANCES. IT WON’T BE A WASHOUT, SO I DON’T THINK YOU NEED TO CANCEL YOUR PLANS TOMORROW, BUT HAVE A PLAN TO DUCK INSIDE IF THERE IS SOME HEAVY RAIN THAT MOVES OVERHEAD, AND ALL OF THE STORMS THAT WE SEE AS WE HEAD THROUGH THE NEXT FEW DAYS LIKELY HAVE SOME LIGHTNING STAYING DRY UNTIL LATER THIS AFTERNOON. SEVERE STORMS ARE POSSIBLE LATER THIS EVENING. MORE SCATTERED STORMS AND HEAVY RAIN LIKELY THE BIGGEST CONCERN. SO WE DO HAVE THE POTENTIAL FOR FLASH FLOODING AND FLASH FLOOD WARNINGS AREA WIDE AS WE HEAD THROUGH THE NEXT TWO AND A HALF, THREE DAYS TODAY, 92 DEGREES, TOMORROW 87. WE’RE GOING TO BE MUGGY. BOTH DAYS HAVE RAIN CHANCES, BUT A LOT OF THE DAY TODAY IS GOING TO BE DRY. MORE RAIN AND STORM CHANCES ON MONDAY, BUT TUESDAY NOW IS TRENDING A LITTLE BIT DRIER THAN WE ARE WARM AND HUMID. AS WE HEAD THROUGH THE SEV
