The latest northeast Wisconsin weather forecast from Storm Team 5…
Calm, warm and muggy conditions are expected as Wednesday begins, but it’s the afternoon/evening when wet weather returns to our area with scattered thunderstorms. There may be some isolated thunderstorms that pop-up between the morning and early afternoon, but the main line will be from 3pm to 8pm.
The main risk with the storms later today will be soaking rainfall and a potential for Flash Flooding as a few communities in the heart of the area may get accumulations between 1 and 3 inches. The secondary threat is damaging straight-line winds on the leading edge of thunderstorms that could blow things around in your yard or cause tree limbs to break and fall, leading to power outages.
A FLOOD WATCH has been issued for counties between the Lake Winnebago area to Highway 29. This will be from 1pm to 10pm where the highest risk for excessive rainfall and flash flooding lines up.
