menu but big portions in general.
I know and a great spot to be if you just want to get out of
some of the gloomy and cold weather that we have coming up.
So it's not going to be a bad choice
to head out to maybe a local restaurant,
support your local eateries for sure. We are seeing thicker
clouds everywhere and the sun is going away.
Now it will be back as we head into later on on Friday
into the weekend but until
then we are going to have to talk about clouds, rain, cold, wind.
And some snowflakes. I think the things that everyone loves
to talk about right as we're heading into the middle of the month.
We've dealt with just a few showers here locally.
Most of that's been in our northern counties
from Sheboygan heading towards areas like Kewaskum,
West Bend, even near Cedarburg with a drier area by the city.
The heaviest activity even with some thunderstorms has remained south
of us in Illinois and will continue to do so.
But we are watching where we have these fronts because the
Fronts will steadily begin to shift to the East Coast.
And as they do, not only are they bringing moisture with it,
but the moisture is going to wrap around
with cold air moving in from the north.
And that's going to move over Lake Michigan,
which could give us some lake effect showers and,
yes, even some snowflakes.
So let's take a look at that on Sky Vision Plus.
Again, not everyone's going to have heavy rain throughout the day,
but we will still have the chance
of some showers until about 3 o'clock or so.
Then activity looks to dwindle down.
We'll still have some clouds with us,
maybe squeezing out an isolated shower tonight when the initial batch
of cooler air moves in with a cold front, but we aren't going
to have many impacts in terms of precipitation after that.
What we're tracking late tonight into the start of your Thursday
is winds starting to pick up quickly through the morning.
Winds could be gusting 30 to maybe even 40 miles an hour tomorrow.
It is going to be very windy, but not only that,
the cooler wind out of the north will knock
our wind chills down near freezing.
So that's one of the impacts we're tracking. The second
is as that cool air again moves over Lake Michigan,
it could create some of that lake
effect precipitation.
And if it wobbles close enough to southeast Wisconsin, we could be
talking about a few showers during the afternoon,
maybe mixing in a few snowflakes, but we are not
watching anything for major impacts.
Very short-lived if we see it. We could have another
chance of that heading into Thursday night, but that's it.
So don't worry about too much in terms
rain, but we will have to watch where that sets up and when.
Rain cooled airs, keeping temperatures in the mid to upper 40s north,
low 50s from Milwaukee towards Racine and Kenosha.
And we're not going to get any warmer than this today.
In fact, temperatures looking to cool as that front's going
to move through and our winds pick up out of the north.
That'll drop us into the 30s tomorrow morning and only having
temperatures in the 40s possibly by tomorrow and Friday. Now
Temperatures, if they reach the 40s, not going to feel like
that strong winds will keep our wind chills about 10 degrees cooler
near freezing as we head through a big portion of the rest of the week.
So plan for needing the winter coat.
It is going to be chilly, but we bring back some of the 50s
and sunshine again by the weekend and next week.
All right. Sounds good, Lisa. Thanks.
