Shower and Storm Chances this Evening & Overnight

Extended Radar Outage

Continued slightly below normal temperatures are on tap through the weekend with highs in the 70s to lower 80s. Partly cloudy skies today give way to increasing chances for showers and storms this evening and overnight, mainly near and north of I-90. Additional small chances for storms linger into the day on Friday before dry conditions are expected for the weekend.

The WSR-88D radar in La Crosse, WI (KARX) is having necessary work done to its protective dome between August 24-30. This work will take up to a week to complete and require the radar to be shut down while being performed. Please use one of the surrounding radars during this time. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause.
