We've had multiple chances over the past two weeks, but on Monday we finally passed 85° to make it the warmest day of the year in Milwaukee. The high temperature on July 1 topped out at 86° at 6:18 p.m. Still far away from the record of 99° set back in 1931.

Kenosha was actually the warmest in southeast Wisconsin getting just one degree away from 90° with a high of 89°. Everyone else was way into the 80s. The Milwaukee temperature is showing the warmest temperature on an hourly reading but doesn't show the 86° since it happened between hours.

Along with the warmth, we had humidity too. Dew points reached 70° pushing feels like temperatures into the 90s in some spots Monday afternoon. Humidity isn't going anywhere with dew points in the upper 60s to around 70° the next few days making it feel a few degrees warmer than the air temperature.

Temperatures still hang around the low to middle 80s the next few days so we could pass the 86° mark in the very near future. None of our weather stations in southeast Wisconsin have reached 90° which could also happen soon. If it wasn't for the storm chances, temperatures would likely be a few degrees warmer, but the rain cools the air lowering temperatures.
