Milwaukee Weather: Cooler and less humid
Forecast from FOX6 Chief Meteorologist Rob Haswell
MILWAUKEE - Wisconsin's weather is finally taking a breather after Monday's heat and storms, with cooler, drier air settling in for Tuesday and Wednesday. Sunshine returns along with lower humidity, making it feel much more comfortable outside. Just don't let the nice weather fool you if you're heading to Lake Michigan, where dangerous waves and currents will keep a high swim risk in place through Wednesday morning. Heat and humidity start making a comeback on Thursday, followed by the next chance for showers and thunderstorms Thursday night through Saturday, with Friday evening looking like the most active period right now. After that, the weekend finishes on a quieter note, with dry weather expected Sunday and Monday before temperatures begin climbing again next week.
