A Level 1 Marginal Risk for strong storms is in place for central WI this evening. It does include a few of our northern counties. It's going to be another warm day which could give enough fuel for a few storms with gusty wind and small hail. Our chance starts after 5 PM.

The chance for some storms later this evening has increased. A broken line of storms will roll in from north to south after 5 PM. It may weaken as it moves in so southern counties don't have as good of a chance for rain as northern counties.

Not as hot as yesterday but still warm in the 70s lakeside and even warmer inland around 80. Another front and a lake breeze push us to chilly levels in the 60s tomorrow then another warm up for Friday. before near average temps this weekend.

Yesterday was the hottest day of the year so far. A touch of a lake breeze prevented Milwaukee from hitting 90 with a high of 86. West Ben was the only spot locally to get into the 90s.

Monster and Cowie Wowie are our featured pets of the day! It's going to be a warm one with afternoon temps in the 80s and highs nearing 90. Comment with your pet photos to be featured soon!

All of the warmth today will provide some fuel for storms along the cold front late this evening & tonight moving across WI from north to south. Central Wisconsin is under a Level 1 Marginal risk for gusty wind and small hail. locally some of our northern counties are included.

It's rare for us to be as warm as we get today (upper 80s) without a lot of humidity. So enjoy a warm day with dew points staying in the 50s! Still low humidity tomorrow then it drops off the charts Thursday.

We are going to be very warm today with highs in the upper 80s then a cold front drops the highs into the 70s tomorrow and a lake breeze keeps us cool on Thursday in the 60s.

The average date for our first day in the 90s in Milwaukee is June 13th. Over the last six years all of our first 90s have happened during the month of June. The last time we had our first high in the 90s during May was in 2018.

We are on record watch today! The forecast has highs in the upper 80s and the current record is 91 set in 1985.

@Georgie_Schmidt Morning Georgie!

@JustinTGee Good morning Justin! Have a great day!

It was a nice and warm Memorial Day and stayed mostly dry. The 84 degree high in Milwaukee is tied for the warmest temp of the year so far. Today should be even hotter in the upper 80s.

Over the last 50+ years we have seen more major warming the more local you get. On a National scale the average temperature has warmed almost three degrees. On a state scale it's warmed over three degrees and on a city scale we've warmed almost five degrees in Milwaukee.

Richy is our featured pet of the day! Temps warm fast on this Memorial Day with afternoon highs in the 80s. Otherwise mostly dry with a mix of sun and clouds.

Some areas, especially south of I-94, finally saw some rain Saturday night into Sunday morning. Near the IL border got around an inch but less than 0.20" north of I-94. Our northern counties didn't see much, if any.

Even though it's going to be so warm today and tomorrow in the 80s the humidity is not bad at all with peak dew points staying in the 50s. You might notice some humidity here or there but otherwise enjoy some warmth without the sticky.

Nice and warm on this Memorial Day with highs reaching into the 80s. We can't completely rule out a few sprinkles this morning through the midday hours for some, otherwise sunny and breezy.

Very warm today and tomorrow with highs reaching the mid to upper 80s! Then a cold front Tuesday evening drops the temps into the 70s and drops again with a lake breeze by Thursday.

From super wet to super dry the last month. April was the #1 wettest April on record. And May is currently the 3rd driest start to the month on record.

We barely made it to 50 in Milwaukee yesterday with the clouds and lake breeze. Most of the afternoon was in the upper 40s but we briefly squeezed to 50. Little warmer inland.
