Strong storm chances build early this week in southeast Wisconsin

SINCE 1989. RETURNING TO WEATHERWATCH 12 NOW, WE HAVE 70 IN STORE. BUT FIRST YOU’RE LOOKING OUT FOR SOME STORMS OVERNIGHT. >> YEAH, WE GOT A WARM FRONT MOVING IN. SO THAT’S GOING TO SPARK A LITTLE BIT OF THOSE SHOWERS AND STORMS AS WE HEAD INTO THE OVERNIGHT HOURS AND EVENING. SO YOU MIGHT HEAR A RUMBLE OF THUNDER. AND THEN FOR YOUR SUNDAY, TEMPERATURES WILL BE SOARING INTO THE 70S. BUT WITH IT WILL ALSO HAVE A WATCHFUL EYE ON THE SKY BECAUSE ANOTHER OPPORTUNITY FOR SOME SCATTERED SHOWERS AND STORMS ARE EXPECTED THROUGH THE DAY TOMORROW. THAT’S NOT GOING TO BE WIDESPREAD. THERE WILL BE PLENTY OF DRY TIME, BUT SOMETHING WE’LL BE WATCHING CLOSELY. AS FOR THE SKY CONDITIONS RIGHT NOW WITH FROM THE EDGEWATER CONDOS ON THE EAST SIDE OF MILWAUKEE, WE DO HAVE A LITTLE BIT MORE CLOUD COVER. IF YOU DID WAKE UP EARLIER THIS MORNING WAS PRETTY MUCH ALL SUNSHINE. NOW WE HAVE THOSE CLOUDS ROLLING IN WITH TEMPERATURES HOLDING ON INTO THE UPPER 40S AND LOWER 50S MORE OUT OF THE SOUTHEAST, BUT WINDS WILL SHIFT OUT OF THE SOUTHWEST TOMORROW. AND THAT IS GOING TO BOOST US INTO THE MID 70S. UPPER 70S MONDAY AND TUESDAY. MID 70S ON WEDNESDAY. LOOKS LIKE WE’LL TREND DRY ON THURSDAY BEFORE ANOTHER CHANCE FOR SOME SCATTERED SHOWERS OR STORMS ON FRIDAY BEFORE COOLING OFF AND DRYING OUT AS WE HEAD INTO NEXT SATURDAY. RADAR AND SATELLITE PICTURE BRINGS IN SOME SCATTERED SHOWERS. THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS PARTS OF THE MIDWEST. THERE WAS A LITTLE BIT OF ACTIVITY ACROSS NORTH OF I-94 EARLIER THIS AFTERNOON. NOW WE’RE IN A BIT OF A LULL, BUT MORE ACTIVITY IS EXPECTED TO FILL IN HERE AS WE HEAD LATER ON INTO THE OVERNIGHT AND OVERNIGHT INTO TOMORROW AS WELL. SO A RISK FOR SOME STORMS AS WE HEAD INTO TOMORROW. NOT REALLY CONCERNED, BUT AS WE HEAD INTO OUR MONDAY AND TUESDAY, THAT’S WHERE WE’RE GOING TO BE FOCUSING A LITTLE BIT MORE CLOSELY. THERE IS A LEVEL TWO OUT OF FIVE FOR ALL OF SOUTHEAST WISCONSIN AS WE HEAD INTO OUR MONDAY. AND RIGHT NOW, DOESN’T LOOK LIKE WE’LL BE SEEING TOO MUCH ACTIVITY DURING THE DAY ON MONDAY. IT’S MORE FOCUSED TOWARDS MONDAY NIGHT. STILL SOME QUESTION MARKS EXACTLY WHERE THOSE STORMS COULD FIRE UP. AND THEN AS WE HEAD INTO OUR TUESDAY, EVERYONE ONCE AGAIN ACROSS SOUTHEAST WISCONSIN UNDER THE RISK FOR SOME STRONG TO SEVERE STORMS. BUT STILL ONCE AGAIN, QUESTION MARKS REMAINING EXACTLY WHERE THEY’RE GOING TO FIRE UP AND KIND OF FINE TUNE THOSE DETAILS AS WE GET CLOSER IN TIME. SO FOR AT LEAST TONIGHT INTO TOMORROW MORNING, WE CAN EXPECT OUR ADDITIONAL SCATTERED SHOWERS AND STORMS AS THAT WARM FRONT LIFTS NORTHWARD. SO IT WILL BE ALONG AND NORTH OF THE WARM FRONT BOUNDARY. BUT WE’LL SEE SOME OF THAT ACTIVITY. WE’LL WAKE UP TOMORROW MORNING. IT LOOKS LIKE THAT FIRST ROUND MOVES OUT SO WE COULD START OFF DRY AS WE GET INTO THE AFTERNOON, WATCHING OUT FOR A FEW OF THESE POP UPS. AND IT DOES APPEAR WE’LL SEE. IT KIND OF INCREASE IN COVERAGE AS WE HEAD LATER ON INTO THE AFTERNOON AND EVENING HOURS BEFORE WE JUST HOLD ON WITH A LITTLE BIT MORE CLOUDY SKIES TO START OFF THE DAY ON MONDAY. BUT SKIES SHOULD CLEAR ON MONDAY AS THOSE WINDS COME IN OUT OF THE SOUTH. AND THEN LATE MONDAY NIGHT. THIS IS WHAT FUTURECAST IS SHOWING WELL UP TO THE NORTH. NOW THERE’S SOME OTHER FORECASTS SUGGESTING THAT TRACK OF THOSE THUNDERSTORMS COULD BE A LITTLE BIT FURTHER SOUTH. SO THERE’S A LITTLE BIT OF SOME WIGGLE ROOM HERE AND PLAY WHAT WE’LL BE WATCHING FOR. BUT IF WE DO SEE THESE SEVERAL ROUNDS OF SHOWERS AND STORMS WILL ADD MORE MOISTURE ONTO ALREADY SATURATED SOIL, PERHAPS OVER AN INCH, TWO INCHES OF RAIN ON TOP OF ALREADY WHAT WE HAVE SEEN, WHICH IS RIGHT NOW THE WETTEST START TO APRIL ON RECORD 75 DEGREES FOR TOMORROW. SCATTERED SHOWERS AND STORMS 77 ON MONDAY. 79 ON TUESDAY. HOLDING INTO THE 70S WITH THOSE STORM CHANCES THROUGH WEDNESDAY, WE’LL GET A LITTLE BREAK ON THURSDAY BEFORE GETTING BACK INTO SOME ADDITIONAL SCATTERED SHOWERS AND STORMS ON FRIDAY, AND THEN FINALLY DRYING THINGS OUT HERE ON SATURDAY WITH SOME COOLER TEMPERATURES AROUND 60. SO AT LEAST WE GOT THE WARMER WEATHER. BUT I. >> BELIEVE MY EYES. OH MY GOSH. 70.
