Good news for those tired of summer's sweltering heat–Milwaukee is serving up a pleasurable concoction of weather this week. According to the National Weather Service, as of August 26, the city is basking in a few clouds and a manageable 54°F early this morning, with a high near 71°F expected later in the day. The current condition is characterized by a modest northwestern breeze at 7 mph, a barometer reading at 30.17 in (1021.6 mb), and visibility standing strong at 10 miles. Textbook jacket weather, if you ask me.
As the night encroaches, clear skies will prevail, leading to an overnight low around 55°F. The wind, stuck in the west, is chilling out at around 5 mph. Come Wednesday, expect the sun to flaunt its rays once more, with highs edging upwards near 76°F and that same west wind keeping things mildly animated at 5 to 10 mph. But don’t let the placid atmosphere fool you–Wednesday night might just pack a punch with a 40% chance of showers and thunderstorms after 10 p.m, as reported by the National Weather Service.
For those planning outdoor activities on Thursday, keep your umbrella close. The forecast promises "a chance of showers and thunderstorms before 1pm, then a chance of rain after 1pm," with a somewhat cooler high around 70°F. The chance of precipitation eases off slightly to 30%–not quite a deluge, but not exactly nothing either. Expect clearer skies by Thursday night, as stated by the National Weather Service.
Starting Friday, New Orleans will enjoy mostly sunny skies with a high around 67°F. The weekend stays nice, warming up to 71°F on Saturday and 75°F on Sunday and Labor Day. It’s great weather for outdoor plans, with clear skies Sunday night and a cool low near 60°F, as per the National Weather Service.
