Southeast Wisconsin weather: Sunshine to late-week rain, storms

and last updated

The 80s were back this afternoon across SE Wisconsin. Despite a brief cool down over the weekend, the heat moved back in quickly. Over the next few days, dew points will begin to climb as more moisture works back into the Great Lakes. Calm weather carries on through Wednesday, but showers and storms are likely heading into the weekend.

High-pressure remains in control early in the week. Any remaining cloud cover dissipates after sunset - giving way to a mainly clear sky overnight. Lows drop into the lower 60s at the lakefront. Inland temperatures may fall into the mid and upper 50s.

Sunshine is back for Tuesday and Wednesday as highs return to the lower 80s. Dew points will climb back into the upper 50s and lower 60s -giving more of a humid feel each day.

Storm Team 4 is monitoring computer guidance trends later in the week. An area of low-pressure descends SE from the northern Plains - spreading showers and storms into the Midwest. Rain may begin as early as late Wednesday night in the West. By Thursday, scattered showers and thunderstorms will have moved over much of Wisconsin. Rain chances continue into Friday as the low pulls away from the Great Lakes. A few additional showers are possible early Saturday.

After a break from the rain on Sunday, another round of showers/storms is possible on Monday.
