Justin Liles: A wet and windy weekend
Last Updated
Two systems bring rounds of accumulating rain this weekend. Rain will increase in intensity this evening and the visibility will decrease too. A few storms on Saturday morning may become strong too severe in portions of northwest WI. However, this appears to be pushing farther to the southeast. This first wave will last until late Saturday afternoon to early evening. We will then get a brief break until the second wave arrives Sunday morning. Sunday will be much cooler as winds come screaming i out of the east 20-30 mph with gust over 40 mph at times. Don’t be surprised if we see a wind advisory issued Sunday for these conditions. Sunday into Monday will also bring in heavier rain than the first wave. Sunday’s rain could lead to localized flooding. This will mainly be in low lying valley area, culverts, and ditches. Rain looks to continue through Monday afternoon, but we may see some lingering rain into Tuesday.
