Milwaukee Weather: Warm up begins Friday

Forecast from FOX6 Chief Meteorologist Rob Haswell

We’re starting our Friday with some lingering patchy fog and a few low clouds, but overall this is a quiet setup across southern Wisconsin.
Temperatures are a bit tricky today depending on cloud cover, but the real headline is the warm-up that builds into Saturday. 
That’s your best spring day with highs pushing well into the 60s.
A weak system slides by Saturday night into Sunday, bringing a chance for some light rain and a noticeable cooldown.
After that, we settle into a quieter stretch early next week before the next real shot at rain shows up by Thursday.
