Heavy Precipitation in the West; Wintry Mix in the North; Fire Weather in the High Plains

Pacific moisture will continue to bring locally heavy coastal/lower elevation rain and heavy mountain snow to the West Coast and portions of the Intermountain West through Monday. A wintry mix will create hazardous travel across the northern Plains and Upper Midwest into early Monday. Dry, gusty winds are resulting in elevated to critical fire weather in the south/central High Plains. Read More >

NWS Milwaukee Tower Cam

		Single Frame

This camera is mounted just over 30 feet off the ground, on the west side of our radar tower (see image linked below). The looped images cover about 1 hour of time. The standard view will default to a roughly west facing perspective. There are times we may point the camera in a different direction to view interesting weather approaching. Alternative views would likely run from south, to west, to north. Any views in the eastern horizon are blocked by the tower itself, limiting their usefulness. There may also be times that the looping images will jump around due to our scanning of the horizon while the images are being taken for the web display. At night, the images will be black. There is some night vision ability in low light situations, but it is limited.
