Today's Forecast

Today's Forecast Image
  • 72°
  • 60°

Showers developed to the south overnight and a few will linger around on and off today, especially early. The chance for rain will stick with us until early tomorrow, then we will finally dry out for at least 36 hours. Highs today will be considerably cooler, in the low 70s, thanks to a cold front that passed overnight. Tonight our lows will also be down a bit bottoming out near 55 degrees.

Tomorrow cools down even more with highs in the 60s and that is where we will stay until late in the weekend. We could even see a frost in parts of Central Wisconsin Friday morning.

The Memorial Day Weekend looks comfortable with highs in the 60s and 70s and low temperatures in the 50s. A few showers and thunderstorms will be possible, but only covering a few hours of each weekend day. -Greg
