Temps will reach low to mid-90s Wednesday, seasonable weather returns this weekend
SOUTHEAST WISCONSIN - Our warmer than average trend continues in a big way this afternoon, as high temps climb to the low to mid-90s and feel like temps hit nearly 100˚ for everyone. Rain on Tuesday, Aug. 25 brought brief relief to the heat but warm air has pushed up from the south and won't budge until Friday.
The warm front bringing this heat extends from northern Minnesota all the way to West Virginia, with mostly rain for Michigan.
