Scattered showers will move across the area tonight and into Wednesday. At times the rain may turn heavy. Stay alert to localized high water in some spots. Meanwhile, in far Northern Wisconsin, it may be cold enough to mix in some light snowfall later tonight.
Wednesday won't be a dramatic improvement, but it will be an improvement nonetheless. Showers and fog will move out by the afternoon and the clouds will try to break at times. High temps should move a little more into the 50s for many areas.
Look for another chance of hit & miss to spotty showers on Thursday. Not everyone will see rain. Temperatures may also be a little higher by the afternoon.
Then, the stretch we've all been waiting for: Friday & Saturday. Look for sunshine and highs in the 60s and 70s.
There is a weak cold front on its way for Sunday. But as of right now, it doesn't seem to pack much of a punch. A small chance for showers is possible, and temps may be a bit lower in the Northern part of the state.
