Fire Weather Planning Forecast for Southern Wisconsin
National Weather Service Milwaukee/Sullivan WI
248 PM CDT Tue May 6 2025

.DISCUSSION...

A cold front will begin pushing into east central Wisconsin early
Wednesday morning and then quickly spread inland through mid
morning. The front will be marked by a quick wind shift to the
northeast with speeds of at least 10 mph that will increase to 15
mph in the afternoon, except gusty winds up to 25 mph along the
lakeshore. Northeast winds will remain elevated through Wednesday
night, especially toward Lake Michigan.

There will be a large range in temperatures between the lakeshore
and western Waukesha County on Wednesday, but expect cooling
temps and dewpoints everywhere during the afternoon. Thus, minimum
RH values will drop to the 45 to 50 percent range for inland
areas. Mixing heights will be lower near the lakeshore than inland
areas.
