Milwaukee, WI
Some areas in Wisconsin saw more than four inches of rain in last 24 hours
Thunderstorms that moved through Wisconsin in the last 24 hours dumped upwards of four inches of rain on some communities, according to estimated totals from the National Weather Service.
The thunderstorms have moved slowly toward Milwaukee, NWS meteorologist Marcia Cronce explained, which produced continuous, steady rain.
Milwaukee is “going to have a solid rainy day today. Rain probably won’t end in Milwaukee until 4:00 p.m., because we have a super slow-moving front that’s going to take it’s time getting to eastern Wisconsin,” she said.
The NWS doesn’t have estimated totals for the Milwaukee area yet. As of about 9:30 a.m., Milwaukee had picked up just over a tenth of an inch within an hour, which was not a large amount.
“The rain that we received, especially Madison and a lot of areas inland overnight, was higher than what was forecast,” Cronce said. “We did increase our expected rainfall totals for this event based on what was going on overnight.”
There are currently no flood advisories in effect anywhere in Wisconsin. But it will be dangerous to swim in Lake Michigan through Monday afternoon, due to gusty winds from the north that cause high waves.

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.
