Dry & Warm Today, Storms Later in the Week

Scattered Severe Storms Possible Friday

One last dry is in store for the region today before the risk for storms returns for the end of the week. Rain could arrive as early as late tonight into Thursday morning, but the best timeframe for storms will be Thursday afternoon through Friday night. These storms could be on the stronger side and possibly bring heavy rain, with the exact details being refined over the next day or so. The weekend could still see some showers, but the forecast is trending drier. Highs for the rest of the week will reside in the low to mid-80s.

There is a slight (level 2 out of 5) risk of severe storms Friday afternoon and evening, mainly southwest of I-94 in the Driftless Region. Large hail and heavy rain are the main threats, but the exact details of where the storms form and their severity will be dictated by how storms behave Thursday afternoon and Friday morning. Stay tuned for more updates!
