MILWAUKEE - People who enjoy sunshine might love this long stretch of it in the Milwaukee area this week.

Storm Team 4Caster Scott Steele says it should stay through at least Saturday.

"A large ridge is building into the center of the nation and should suppress any unsettled weather around here for the next several days," explains Scott. 

"Mostly sunny skies will be in order along with the dry conditions."

Scott also believes warmer temperatures are in order for our area this weekend.

"The leading edge of much warmer air will arrive by Friday with another significant surge in temperatures on southwest winds.  Readings will rise up to near 80 degrees from the end of the work week through the weekend."
