Southeast Wisconsin weather: Severe storm risk increases across the area Friday

A cold front will trigger two rounds of rainfall today. One is already underway early Friday morning. Scattered showers and storms were ongoing across central Wisconsin. An overall weakening trend is expected as this first round nears Milwaukee by mid/late morning. These storms could contain gusty winds and downpours.

Given increasing dew points, more instability and the presence of the cold front, a second round of storms is expected to develop across southern Wisconsin late this afternoon and into the evening hours. The strongest storms could contain damaging winds and/or hail. An isolated tornado cannot be ruled out.

Storms clear the region after 10P.

A spotty shower or storm is possible along the lake breeze on Saturday. These storms could also produce gusty winds and downpours.
Most of Saturday will be dry and sunny with highs in the upper 70s. Cooler & comfortable weather returns Sunday and early next week.
