Tornado Watch Extended For Milwaukee Area: WI Weather
MILWAUKEE — The National Weather Service has extended its tornado watch for the Milwaukee area to 10 p.m. Saturday.
The watch includes the counties of Kenosha, Milwaukee, Ozaukee, and Racine.
The area is expected to see several thunderstorms and heavy rainfall that may lead to flash flooding through the evening. The heavy rainfall is creating risks of longer-term river flooding as well.
Meanwhile, the NWS has issued tornado warnings for Jefferson County and Dodge County.
At 7:30 p.m., a severe thunderstorm capable of producing a tornado was located near Watertown, moving east at 35 mph, weather officials said.
“TAKE COVER NOW! Move to a basement or an interior room on the lowest floor of a sturdy building,” the NWS warns to residents in those counties. “Avoid windows. If you are outdoors, in a mobile home, or in a vehicle, move to the closest substantial shelter and protect yourself from flying debris.”
Here’s the full NWS forecast from the Milwaukee Airport:

Judge Michelle Havas sentenced Gladney to 29 years in prison on Friday, April 17. He was granted credit for more than a year’s time served and further sentenced to 14 years of extended supervision.
Arrested in Arizona after years on the run, court records show Gladney has also been ordered to pay the Milwaukee County District Attorney’s Office more than $1,800 for extradition costs.
Homicide investigation
The backstory:
The shooting happened in May 2020. Investigators said Gladney was captured on video apparently arguing with the victim, his cousin, outside a Milwaukee convenience store near 21st and Meinecke.
“It’s all on video, and it’s devastating for that family,” the marshal on the case told FOX6 when Gladney was profiled on Wisconsin’s Most Wanted. “You have a family member that shot and killed another family member.”

Prosecutors said Gladney walked away but then returned with a gun pointed directly at the victim and shot him. The victim died from his gunshot wounds at a nearby hospital. Multiple bullet casings were found at the scene.
Gladney went on the run for years. He was arrested in Arizona in January 2023, years after he was charged.
