...Severe Storms Possible this Afternoon and Evening...

Severe thunderstorms are possible this afternoon and evening, along and ahead of a trough of low pressure.

Main Hazards:

Isolated tornadoes, with a strong tornado possible
Damaging Winds
Large Hail

Breezy south winds will bring warm and humid air into the region today. This should lead to unstable conditions across southern Wisconsin. Clouds and precipitation from the west may affect the amount on instability avialable for convection.
However, strong wind shear will be in place across the region, both through a deep layer of the atmosphere, and in the low levels of the atmosphere.

A strong low pressure system will move northeast into Minnesota Sunday, which will help bring a trough of low pressure into the area during the afternoon and evening. This will set the stage for possible severe storms.

Large hail, damaging winds and isolated tornadoes are all possible. Check back to this page for the latest information regarding today's severe weather potential.
