MILWAUKEE - Forecast from FOX6 Chief Meteorologist Rob Haswell
We're in for a damp and breezy Thursday as a cold front sweeps through southern Wisconsin, bringing scattered showers, a big wind shift and very little actual rainfall. Once the front clears the area, the wind turns northerly and ushers in a much cooler air mass, with temperatures struggling to get to the upper 40s Friday. The good news is that high pressure takes control for the weekend, giving us plenty of dry weather and a gradual warmup. We expect to be back into the lower 60s by Monday and Tuesday! Another cold front arrives around the middle of next week, but with no significant rain expected, it looks like a fairly quiet stretch of fall weather.
