Strong winds and storms triggered warnings across Southeast Wisconsin Wednesday as streets flooded and trees toppled over.

Severe thunderstorm warnings were issued for several Southeast Wisconsin counties Wednesday afternoon.

TMJ4 meteorologists say widespread severe storms are not expected for later in the evening, however, torrential downpours are causing flooding rains. Any storm is expected to wrap up by sunset.
