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.

Raoul is our featured pet today! Watch for a few sprinkles with the clouds, otherwise mostly dry. Warmer than yesterday with afternoon highs around 60 and even warmer inland.

Don't let the low rain chances stop your cook outs or Memorial Day services. Temps warm throughout the weekend starting with the lake breeze Saturday around 60 then 70s are back for Sunday and warming to 80 for Memorial Day.

Lake breeze remains today and tomorrow with a breezy wind out of the NE. The lake breeze goes away Sunday when the wind shifts to the south.

No likely chances for rain heading into the weekend but no 0% chances either. Could see sprinkles today, only a slight chance for some showers Saturday. Little better chance for a few showers or storms Sunday. Bottom line: don't cancel your plans but keep an umbrella on standby.

Not as cold this morning with temps in the 40s. Should be much warmer than yesterday with lakeside highs around 60 but still warmer away from the lakefront.

Max and Mia are our featured pets today! A much cooler day with highs only in the 50s but a nice mix of sun and clouds all day. Comment with your pet photo to be featured soon!

An EF-0 tornado has been confirmed in Lafayette County from the storms Friday night into Saturday morning. That is now the 28th tornado across the state this year.

Brewers going for the sweep of the Cubs at Wrigley today. Much cooler than the last few games and windy down at Wrigley too. Grab the jacket!

Temps this morning are about 20 degrees cooler than this time yesterday. This morning is closer to average in the upper 40s to around 50. A lake breeze keeps us cool all day with lakeside highs in the low 50s and inland areas closer to 60.

@Georgie_Schmidt Oh interesting! No, I haven't seen it. I'll have to check it out!

@JustinTGee have you seen the tv show on Discovery called In the Eye of the Storm: Chasers? I recorded the first episode and I like that they put in the beginning that all videos are real, no AI. To me it’s a “What not do to” when chasing storms. It was crazy!!

With all of the severe storms and tornadoes we had last month, I have been asked to share this link to a NOAA survey that seeks to capture people's experiences with tornadoes. Survey link: inside.nssl.noaa.gov/tornado-tales/

We are getting close to the historical peak for tree pollen and our local counts are still high. Tree pollen typically drops quickly at the start of June. We are also seeing grass and weed pollen start to show up a bit more.
