.DISCUSSION...
Issued at 113 PM CDT Sun Sep 20 2026

Minimally impactful weather is expected through next weekend. Mostly
cloudy skies will remain across the region tonight as breezy
northeast wind stream over the relativity warm waters of Lakes
Michigan and Superior, however, with increasing dry air moving in at
mid-levels don`t expect any lake effect rain. A short-wave,
currently over Wyoming, will track east across the mid-Mississippi
and Ohio valleys Monday and Tuesday shutting warm and moist air well
south of the region and allowing a Hudson Bay high to continue
feeding seasonally cool, dry, and stable air into the region. With
that clear skies over night Monday and Tuesday nights may lead to
areas of frost across parts of north-central WI. Temperatures will
begin to trend warmer later into the week with highs return to above
normal by next weekend. Next chance for widespread rain doesn`t look
to arrive until early next week.
