Milwaukee Weather: AM flurries, PM warm-up

Forecast from FOX6 Chief Meteorologist Rob Haswell

Alright, this is one of those classic spring fake-outs where we warm things up nicely midweek before reminding you it’s still March. We’ll deal with clouds and maybe a stray flurry early, but honestly, most of that won’t even make it to the ground. The real headline is the warm-up, with 50s Tuesday and a push into the 60s Wednesday away from the lake. A weak system slides through Thursday with some scattered rain chances and even a little thunder, but the really severe stuff should stay south. Then we cool briefly Friday before bouncing right back into a milder, more spring-like pattern for the weekend, with another active setup looming next week.

Today:    Isolated flurries possible before 9am then partly sunny and seasonally mild.
