>> WELCOME BACK. WE’RE TAKING A LIVE LOOK OVER MILWAUKEE RIGHT NOW AND MAY UNDER THAT TORNADO. WATCH THAT ALL FOR SOME STORMS TONIGHT. IT WOULD LOOK ESPECIALLY OMINOUS OF ONE OF THOSE CAMERAS ARE LOOKING AT RIGHT THERE WERE IN WAUKESHA COUNTY RIGHT NOW. LET’S GET RIGHT OVER TO BRENDAN JOHNSON, WAUKESHA COUNTIES GETTING IT. YEAH, WE’RE STARTING TO SOME OF STRONGER STORMS ROLL ON AND NO ACTIVE WARNINGS. AS OF RIGHT NOW IN SOUTHEASTERN WISCONSIN, WE’RE GOING TO CONTINUE TO MONITOR THROUGHOUT THE COURSE OF THIS AFTERNOON AND CERTAINLY INTO THE EVENING HOURS AS WELL. BUT YEAH. >>
AS YOU POINTED OUT, WE’VE GOT LIGHTNING RIGHT NOW ON GOING THROUGH WALWORTH COUNTY ALONG. I-43 HERE NEAR ELKHORN JUST TO THE NORTH OF LAKE GENEVA. BUT YEAH, CELL POPPING UP RIGHT NOW. JUST NORTH OF WAUKESHA GOT SOME LIGHTNING WITH THIS RIGHT NOW POSITIONED OVER. I-94. THIS IS MOVING TO THE NORTH-NORTHEAST A FAIRLY QUICKLY. BUT AS OF RIGHT NOW, JUST KEEPING AN EYE ON THE WIND PATTERN HERE, WE’VE GOT OUR VELOCITY MAP HERE WITH THE RADAR, GREEN, MEANING WINDS HEADED TOWARDS THE RADAR. RED OUTBOUND WINDS MOVING AWAY FROM THE RADAR. SO NO INDICATIONS OF ROTATION JUST
QUITE YET. WE START TO SEE THAT. OF COURSE OUT. WE WILL LET YOU KNOW ABOUT IT. BUT IT’S OF THIS POINT. THIS IS PART OF ROUND ONE CLUSTER SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS. A MAJORITY OF THEM HEADED TOWARDS THE CHICAGO LAND AREA. AND WE STILL DO HAVE THE SECONDARY
THE POSITION OF THE WARM FRONT AND THE IMPACT FROM LAKE MICHIGAN. LOOK AT THIS. WE’RE IN THE 40’S IN NORTHERN DODGE COUNTY. BUT YOU GO FARTHER SOUTH OF THE JEFFERSON COUNTY. WE’VE GOT NUMBERS IN THE 50’S 70 DEGREES RIGHT THERE. A PANIC LAKE. 69 RIGHT NOW IN PLEASANT PRAIRIE. BUT AGAIN RECEIVED 49, YOU’VE GOT THAT INFLUENCE FROM LAKE THAT IS REALLY GOING TO ELIMINATE ANY OF THAT SURFACE MOISTURE AND SURFACE WARM AIR NUMBERS IN THE 40’S HERE RIGHT ALONG THE SHORE IN MILWAUKEE COUNTY. BUT MOVING BACK TO THE WEST, CERTAINLY STARTING TO SEE THOSE NUMBERS
FALL A LITTLE BIT AS THE WARM FRONT SAGS DOWN TO THE SOUTH AND TO THE POINTS IN THE 50’S WHERE WE GET HIGHER DEW POINTS, BETTER OPPORTUNITY FOR SOME STRONGER STORMS. SO WE’RE GOING TO LET THIS ROUND MAKE ITS WAY THROUGH OVER THE NEXT ONE TO 2 HOURS. A COUPLE OF SPOTTY SPRINKLES. MAYBE A RUMBLE OF THUNDER. BUT IT’S THE SECOND LINE THAT COULD BRING US THOSE HIGH WINDS EXPECTING TO HAVE THIS IN HERE AROUND 8 TO 9 O’CLOCK TONIGHT. DEFINITELY WANT TO KEEP AN EYE OUT FOR THAT. THEN IT CLEARS THE AREA. AND THEN
AS WE HEAD OVERNIGHT, WE’RE GOING TO START TO SEE THE WINDS SHIFT. TORNADO WATCH CONTINUES THROUGH 10 O’CLOCK FOR MUCH OF SOUTHERN WISCONSIN. ALL OF OUR STATE LINE COUNTIES. IT DOES INCLUDE THE CITY OF MILWAUKEE THAT OVERNIGHT LOW PRESSURE PASSES OVERHEAD. WE’VE GOT SOME SNOW SHOWERS ON TAP FOR TOMORROW MORNING AND SOME STRONG NORTHERLY WINDS GUSTING UPWARDS OF 40 TO 45 MILES PER HOUR. AS THE SYSTEM PULLS AWAY FROM US IN TERMS OF ACCUMULATION OF SNOWFALL, NOT MUCH FOLKS. JUST A COUPLE TENTHS OF AN INCH OF SNOWFALL ACCUMULATION, HIGHER TOTALS EXPECTED A BIT FARTHER TO
THE NORTH DOWN TO 40 DEGREES ON OUR SATURDAY. WE MAY BE DOWN INTO THE 30’S AT TIMES TOMORROW. SO YOU’RE TALKING ABOUT A SOLID, 30 DEGREE DROP FROM SOME PLACES. AND THEN WE’RE REALLY KIND OF BACK TO AROUND 40 DEGREES DURING THE AFTERNOON AND SUNDAY WILL BREAK OUT SOME SUNSHINE. THAT WILL BE NICE. AND THEN WE BRING BACK THE CHANCE OF RAIN ON MONDAY. I THINK THE SHOWER CHANCES ARE GOING TO BE FAIRLY LIMITED. SO I KNOW OPENING DAY. LOT OF TAILGATERS OUT THERE. THE PROBABLY HAVE THE CLOSED TODAY AND PHAM. BUT THEN AS WE
HEAD TUESDAY INTO PROBABLY BE OUR NEXT BIG WEATHER MAKER OF NOTE. TEMPERATURES IN THE MID 50’S
