The cold front that was dropping into southeast Wisconsin Saturday evening stalled across the area today with isolated showers and storms from time to time north of the front.
The front will continue to drop just south of the Wisconsin/Illinois border this evening and stall there overnight, putting the focus for scattered showers and isolated storms across southeast Wisconsin. Showers look to become more numerous this evening into Monday morning with a couple of isolated storms possible as well.
If we're able to get a few storms to pop this evening into tonight, they could be on the stronger side and produce gusty winds or hail. All of southeast Wisconsin is under a Marginal Risk (level 1 of 5) for this isolated strong storm threat.
Scattered showers and isolated stronger storms will be possible through Monday morning before becoming more isolated in the afternoon. The stalled front will slowly lift northward through the area later Monday afternoon and evening, pushing any showers and storms into the northern part of the state for Monday night.
A weakening line of showers and storms head of the cold front will dissipate as it moves into SE WI around sunrise Tuesday morning, but the actual cold front won't move through into the afternoon. Behind the front, temps will drop back to normal for a day on Wednesday before 80s return for the second half of the week.
