Milwaukee is looking at a mostly sunny Wednesday, with a high in the lower 70s. It should be one of those easy early-fall days that feels more like a reward than a forecast.

Sunny Wednesday Gives Way To A Cooler Thursday

Wednesday will stay dry, with no watches, warnings or advisories posted for the area. The National Weather Service Milwaukee/Sullivan says winds shift northwest by Wednesday morning and turn westerly by the afternoon.

Thursday remains sunny but cooler, with a high near 64. Friday brings mostly sunny skies and a high near 65, although there is a 20–30% chance of rain showers after 1 p.m.

Warm Weekend Arrives Before Rain Chances Return

Saturday is expected to be sunny, breezy and warm, with the weekend largely dry. Sunday should be partly sunny and warm, giving Milwaukee a solid weekend window for walks, errands and outdoor plans.

Monday looks mostly cloudy, with a shower. Tuesday will be cooler, with an afternoon shower.

The shift is a notable update from the sunny, breezy setup outlined in Hoodline’s earlier forecast. For now, Milwaukee gets the best of the week’s warmth this weekend, with rain chances returning early next week.
