Brace yourselves for a breezy week, Milwaukee, as the National Weather Service (NWS) Milwaukee is predicting westerly wind gusts ranging from 30 to 40 mph for today and going into the night. The city can expect partly sunny skies with highs near 61 degrees and a continuing blustery theme with a west wind of 10 to 20 mph, featuring gusts up to 35 mph.
For those looking forward to the evening hustle, the outlook includes a 40 percent chance of showers, mainly after 2 a.m. tonight, and a low around 38, which still factors in gusty conditions similar to today's. Not to be outdone, tomorrow keeps the windy streak alive with winds around 20 mph, and gusts could again reach as high as 30 mph, despite a decreasing shower probability of 10 percent before 7 a.m. The rest of the week will be a mix of sunshine and occasional showers or thunderstorms, especially on Thursday.
If you're already wondering about the weekend – mostly sunny skies are expected on Saturday with a high near 53, but keep those umbrellas nearby. Sunday introduces a 20 percent chance of showers amidst mostly sunny conditions and a high near 52, according to the NWS outlook.
The Midwest is no stranger to changing weather, and this week is a reminder that spring can still bring surprises. The NWS issued a Hazardous Weather Outlook for parts of east central, south central, and southeast Wisconsin, noting the potential for severe weather changes—though no spotter activation is needed at this time.
