3 Things To Know:

- A brief dry spell is expected Friday and Saturday before more rain next week.
Showers and Thunderstorms on the Move
Today marks the beginning of a rainy stretch for Northwest Wisconsin. Widespread showers are moving in, particularly affecting areas this afternoon and evening. While the primary threat for stronger storms is in central and north-central Minnesota, it’s important for residents to stay prepared.
As noted in the NWS Area Forecast Discussion, “widespread wetting rain and thunderstorms arrive from west to east this afternoon and continue through Wednesday.” This means that most areas will see some rainfall, although severe weather is not expected to be widespread. The best potential for any strong storms will be limited.
Thunderstorms Wednesday and Beyond
The threat of showers and isolated non-severe thunderstorms will linger into Wednesday and Thursday. Confidence is moderate with peak storm potential occurring during the afternoon to early evening hours.
After this rainy period, a brief dry spell is on the horizon for Friday and Saturday, providing a chance to dry out with seasonable temperatures in the 70s. However, a more active weather pattern returns Sunday through next Tuesday, with another round of showers and thunderstorms likely.
