The forecast for Milwaukee, Waukesha and SE Wisconsin is for highs to get close to 80 after morning showers.  It will be breezy and humid and as a warm front moves into the state from the west, more storms are expected to develop by late afternoon and evening.  We are under a slight risk of severe storms up until midnight tonight.

The sky will clear overnight and it will be warm and muggy with lows near 70.  Wednesday will be mostly sunny, hot and humid with highs near 90, but the cold front will bring drier and cooler air by the evening as lows drop into the 50s from Waukesha and west and 60s along the lake.  

Thursday and Friday are beautiful with sunshine, low humidity and highs in the 70s.

The great weather continues through the weekend with sun and highs mainly in the 70s.
