Residents in Milwaukee should brace for a cloudy week ahead, with rain expected to dampen midweek plans. With today's skies clearing up and a high of 46 degrees anticipated, the weather appears relatively mild for a chilly November day. Light southeast winds may make the air feel cooler, encouraging locals to keep their jackets handy, according to the National Weather Service in Milwaukee.
Tonight's forecast suggests a low around 43 degrees accompanied by a gentle southeast breeze. The serenity of the partly cloudy evening, however, is due to make way for a damp Wednesday. A 20 percent chance of rain after 3 pm could bring a reminder that the wet season is far from over, as reported by the National Weather Service.
The National Weather Service update notes a 90 percent chance of rain Wednesday night, with new precipitation amounts between a half and three quarters of an inch possible. This wet spell is expected to continue into Thursday with rain likely, mainly before noon. A high near 52 degrees doesn't exclude the possibility of wet commutes, suggesting waterproof outerwear could become a staple this week.
The outlook for the closing days of the week provides some reprieve from the rain. Friday's forecast predicts mostly sunny skies with temperatures hovering around a comfortable 55 degrees. Yet, as the weekend nears, so does the likelihood of more showers. A subtle change in the dry narrative presents a 20 percent chance of showers both Saturday night and Sunday. Regardless, the temperatures should remain steady, with highs in the mid-50s and lows in the 30s and 40s, as per the National Weather Service.
Milwaukeeans can expect to start the new week with a 40 percent chance of showers. Despite a low around 39 degrees Sunday night, Monday is set to peak at a mostly sunny, albeit showery, 53 degrees. Seems like those living in and around the city's vicinity should be ready for a mix of sun and rain, encapsulating the unpredictable heart of autumn weather.
