TORNDAO WATCH ISSUED:

THE NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE HAS ISSUED TORNADO WATCH 25 IN EFFECT UNTIL 10 PM CST THIS EVENING.

THE TORNADO WATCH IS IN EFFECT FOR KENOSHA, RACINE, AND WALWORTH COUNTY.

THIS INCLUDES THE CITIES OF DELAVAN, EAST TROY, ELKHORN, KENOSHA, LAKE GENEVA, RACINE, AND WHITEWATER.

It's already been a historic day and our wild weather ride may have just begun. It's the warmest February day on record in Milwaukee with a high temperature of 73 degrees.

This warmth may lead to severe storm development this evening. Large hail is the primary threat between 6:00 and 9:00 p.m., but an isolated tornado is also possible near the state line.

A cold front sweeps southeast Wisconsin by midnight sending our temperatures on a free fall. Rain showers will change to snow showers by early tomorrow morning. This may lead to some slick road conditions for the morning commute.

We may see a 50+ degree temperature drop. The biggest temperature change in Milwaukee in less than 24 hours is 49 degrees, which occurred on 1/28/1934.
