MILWAUKEE — The wind shifted to the NE and was gusting to 30 mph all day, and it created very comfortable conditions. High pressure to our north gave us the breeze, a bright blue sky and temps near 70 in Milwaukee to near 80 inland. The humidity took a nose dive, and that dry air allows temps to drop into the mid 50s in Milwaukee and upper 40s by morning. Keep the AC off for Friday because it will be beautiful, and it needs its rest for the holiday weekend. Friday's high in Milwaukee is 73, and in the upper 70s inland with a lot of sun, low humidity and a NE wind at 15 mph.
The high pressure system that cooled us down drifts to our south for Saturday and that means the return of a SW wind, more heat and humidity. Saturday is in the upper 80s with a lot of sun and humidity. Sunday is sunny, hot and very humid with highs in the low 90s. Monday is also sunny, steamy and hot with high near 90. Our next chance for rain is Monday evening and Tuesday.
