We've had multiple reports of funnel clouds associated some showers and weak thunderstorms early this afternoon. These will be possible across south central and southeast Wisconsin through early evening.

Typically, these funnel clouds stay at the base of the cloud and do not come in contact with the ground. However, if they do approach the ground, seek shelter immediately.

 

We would like to hear about any funnel clouds you might observe. Please send any reports to the NWS at weather.gov/mkx/reports. Also send us pictures via Facebook, Twitter, or email: w-mkx.webmaster@noaa.gov.
