WATCH: TMJ4 Meteorologist Kristen Kirchhaine breaks down tornado and damage reports:
Another round of storms is likely along an advancing frontal boundary. Strong winds and some hail are also possible with these storms. Storms will clear SE Wisconsin by 10-11 p.m. tonight. As low-pressure passes by overhead, gusty NW winds take over. Scattered snow showers are possible early Saturday morning as winds gust up to 40 mph. Minor accumulations are possible farther North of I-94.
Stay weather aware through Friday evening as these storms move through.
A calmer stretch of weather is expected by Sunday - with sunshine and highs back into the lower 50s.
A few showers are possible by Monday afternoon - just in time for the Brewers home opener.
Showers and more storms are possible late Tuesday into Wednesday
