An approaching cold front could bring strong to severe storms in across the state Tuesday afternoon and evening.


What You Need To Know

  • Storms will move across the state Tuesday afternoon and evening

  • Severe storms could generate damaging wind gusts and large hail

  • Make sure you have a way to receive weather alerts for the storms

The areas shaded in yellow are under a slight risk (2 out of 5 on our severe weather scale) for severe weather. Main threats will be damaging wind and large hail.

A Severe Thunderstorm Watch will be in effect for those counties shaded in pink in northeastern Wisconsin until 8 p.m. Tuesday.

Strong storms could start developing in northern Wisconsin as early as Tuesday afternoon. The best window to see severe weather will be between the hours of 3:00 p.m. and 10:00 p.m.

Strong storms will continue to move south throughout the evening, and move into southern Wisconsin by early tonight. Once we pass 10:00 p.m., the severe threat will start to diminish, but that doesn't mean we couldn't still get some strong gusts and heavy rainfall.

Although, most storms are expected to clear out by midnight.
