The forecast for Milwaukee, Waukesha and SE Wisconsin is for highs near 80 and humid with scattered afternoon storms and some will become severe with large hail, strong winds and torrential downpours.  A Severe Thunderstorm Watch is in effect until 7pm for all of SE Wisconsin except Fond du Lac and Sheboygan counties.

Isolated t'showers are then expected this evening and overnight with lows near 60.  A cold front will shift the winds to the NE for Friday and after highs near 60 along the lake, temperatures will drop into the upper 40s while inland areas will be less humid and near 70 with a slight chance for a few t'showers.

The weekend is cool with highs in the lower 50s along the lake and lower 60s inland thanks to an easterly breeze and a few isolated t'showers.
