After what can only be described as an annoying stretch of cloudy and cool temperatures across Wisconsin, much drier and warmer weather will start to move in Friday and this weekend. Unfortunately, that means we have one more day of cloudy, chilly and dreary conditions with a few showers possible Thursday morning into early afternoon.
Clouds will start to break late in the day Thursday with clearing continuing overnight. Friday will feature a triumphant return of sunshine but high temperatures will still be cool for this time of year, in the 50s for most places.
The weekend will feature a fair amount of sunshine both Saturday and Sunday with a small chance of a late-day shower on Sunday. Cooler air returns next week along with the chance of more rain so enjoy the sunshine while we have it!
