Storm Potential Wednesday

High Swim Risk Wednesday

[6/16/26] A potent low pressure system will bring storms to the Great Lakes region Wednesday. For our neck of the woods this will mean some widespread showers and storms, with a the potential for a few strong or severe storms in central and east-central Wisconsin. However, if you have travel plans towards Milwaukee, Chicago, or further southwards, you'll want to keep an eye on the forecast as the stronger more severe storms are expected to track through those areas.

Increasing winds and waves will result in the increasing of rip currents Wednesday afternoon into Thursday morning. A Beach Hazards Statement is in effect from 3 PM Wednesday to 9 AM Thursday.
