Milwaukee Weather: Dry Friday, storms return Monday
Forecast from FOX6 Chief Meteorologist Rob Haswell
MILWAUKEE - We’ll finish the workweek warm and comfortable with plenty of dry weather before a weak cold front moves through Saturday. That front is looking increasingly moisture-starved, so while an isolated shower or rumble of thunder is possible, much of Saturday may stay dry. Sunday looks like the winner of the weekend with highs in the 70s, lower humidity and perhaps some upper 40s showing up by Monday morning. Things get more interesting Sunday night through early Tuesday as a stronger system brings showers, thunderstorms and at least some potential for heavy rain and a few stronger storms.
