Shorter days, longer nights... that's what you think of when fall and especially winter gets underway. Today's daylight milestone includes sunsets now back before 7pm in the evening. Check it out: 

 And while this usually isn't pleasant news for folks to hear, there's good things coming down the pike. How about Christmas is exactly 100 days away! And shortly after that we can flip the calendar to 2021 and that's definitely something to celebrate!!

But with these shorter days, we're feeling the cooler air as well. Look at the spread in morning low temperatures: 

Even though Milwaukee was mild to start the day, a few spots fell to the 40s. Currently there's a cold front sweeping across the viewing area. Colder air is set to follow. You can see that change just to our north! Many spots will fall the 40s over the next couple of nights, so bundle up! The good news is it doesn't last long with a stretch of milder 70s and plenty of sun for next week.
