Milwaukee, WI
More scattered rain and thunderstorms expected for Milwaukee early this week
Manawa director of public works speaks briefly about July 5 flooding
Josh Smith, city of Manawa’s director of Public Works and fire chief for the Manawa Rural Fire Department speaks briefly about flood waters in Manawa, Wisconsin on July 5, 2024.
Continuing a rainy summer, more showers and thunderstorms will move into the Milwaukee area early this week — though no severe weather is expected.
On Sunday, showers and storms are possible further west, and some weak storms might move through later tonight.
Both Monday and Tuesday “looks like fairly scattered activity,” National Weather Service meteorologist Denny VanCleve said. Showers and storms could happen at any point during the day Monday.
Tuesday looks like it could be drier, and any rain or thunder is more likely to happen in the afternoon. More rain is possible on Wednesday and Thursday, but the chances will taper off toward the end of the week.
There “could be a few stronger storms, locally heavy rainfall. But right now, it looks like we don’t have quite the setup for severe weather,” VanCleve said. “Just kind of general daytime thunderstorms that we can often see during a summer day.”
Will Hurricane Beryl impact Wisconsin?
Meteorologists are also tracking the path of Tropical Storm Beryl, which is expected to reach the Texas coast as a hurricane early Monday. The path of impacted areas could include part of southeast Wisconsin, but main areas expected to see higher moisture are central Illinois, Indiana, Ohio and lower Michigan, VanCleve said.
“Whoever does have this come through will probably see good rainfall amounts,” he said, likely around the middle of the week. “We can expect places to probably see at least a couple of inches of rainfall along the higher swath.”
Wisconsin has been hammered by rainfall this summer, causing flooding in some areas. A dam did not fail in the city of Manawa this weekend, but earth on the sides of the dam became eroded enough to give way to the waters behind the dam. The city received about four inches of rain.

This summer “has certainly been on the wetter end,” VanCleve said. “If you look back a year ago, all of Wisconsin was in drought, and parts of southern Wisconsin were in severe drought. And now a year later, we’ve got no areas in Wisconsin are in drought.”

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.
