5/18 Tracking rounds of rain and storms across SEWI

追加: 2026-05-18

[00:00:00]SENIOR SHOUT OUTS, AND WATCH FOR MORE STUDENTS IN EVERY NEWSCAST.

[00:00:05]THIS WEEKEND.

[00:00:06]OBVIOUSLY, A LOT OF COMMENCEMENT CELEBRATIONS SUNDAY.

[00:00:08]NOT AS BEAUTIFUL AS SATURDAY, BUT OVERALL IT WAS A PRETTY DECENT WEEKEND.

[00:00:13]SATURDAY.

[00:00:13]DEFINITELY THE PICK DAY MADE IT UP INTO THE MID 80S.

[00:00:16]YEAH, BEAUTIFUL.

[00:00:17]LIKE SUMMER ACROSS SOUTHEAST WISCONSIN.

[00:00:19]AND NOW WE’RE TRACKING SOME AREAS OF RAIN AND STORMS AND THE POTENTIAL FOR SOME ROUNDS OF STORMS OVER THE NEXT COUPLE OF DAYS.

[00:00:26]SO I JUST WANT TO START WITH THE SEVERE WEATHER OUTLOOK.

[00:00:30]WE’RE AT A LEVEL TWO OUT OF FIVE.

[00:00:32]THIS IS MAINLY FOR OVERNIGHT TONIGHT INTO THE EARLY MORNING HOURS ON TUESDAY.

[00:00:37]WE ALSO HAVE SOME RAIN THAT WE’RE TRACKING CURRENTLY JUST TO THE WEST OF US FROM MADISON AND OVER NORTHWESTERN PORTIONS OF ILLINOIS AND OUT TOWARD IOWA.

[00:00:45]THAT’S ALL TRACKING UP TO THE NORTH AND EAST AS WE GO TO OUR FUTURE RADAR.

[00:00:50]SO WE’LL PUT THE RADAR INTO MOTION THROUGH THE 5:00 HOUR STORM.

[00:00:54]STAY TO THE WEST, THROUGH THE 6:00 HOUR.

[00:00:57]I THINK STORMS MAINLY OUT TOWARD DANE COUNTY AND RIGHT ALONG 39 OUT TOWARD THE WISCONSIN DELLS.

[00:01:02]WE’RE NOT EXPECTING ANY OF THOSE TO BE STRONG OR SEVERE, BUT SOME RUMBLES OF THUNDER POSSIBLE AND SOME AREAS OF HEAVY RAIN.

[00:01:09]THAT’S MAINLY FOR ABOUT 8 TO 9:00.

[00:01:11]SO WE’RE GOING TO SEE A FIRST ROUND OF RAIN FROM THE MID TO LATE MORNING.

[00:01:15]SOME OF THAT COULD LINGER INTO THE EARLY AFTERNOON.

[00:01:17]AND THEN WE SEE A BREAK WITH SOME SUNSHINE, A LOT OF WARMTH.

[00:01:21]TODAY WE’RE BACK UP TO 84 DEGREES AFTER WE HIT THE MID 80S ON SATURDAY.

[00:01:25]WITH OUR WINDS NOW COMING IN FROM THE SOUTH THROUGHOUT YOUR MONDAY.

[00:01:29]SO LET’S TALK ABOUT THAT SEVERE POTENTIAL AS WELL.

[00:01:31]SO THIS IS THE FIRST ROUND NON-SEVERE MOVING INTO SOUTHEASTERN WISCONSIN.

[00:01:35]THIS IS RIGHT AROUND 10 A.M.

[00:01:37]AND THEN SO FOR THE MID TO LATE MORNING, EARLY AFTERNOON, WE’VE GOT THIS ROUND OF RAIN.

[00:01:41]THEN WE DRY OUT.

[00:01:42]NOW WE NEED TO WATCH AND SEE HOW MUCH SUNSHINE WE GET THIS AFTERNOON.

[00:01:46]BECAUSE IF WE GET ENOUGH SUN, ENOUGH INSTABILITY THAT COULD FIRE OFF AT LEAST A COUPLE OF ISOLATED STORMS.

[00:01:51]BUT THIS IS SORT OF THE MAIN EVENT.

[00:01:53]IF YOU LOOK BACK TO THE WEST OF US AGAIN, WE’RE TRACKING A LARGE COMPLEX OF THUNDERSTORMS THROUGH THE OVERNIGHT.

[00:01:58]THIS IS AROUND 2:00 IN THE MORNING.

[00:02:00]AND ALONG THE LEADING EDGE OF THIS, IT’S POSSIBLE TO GET SOME STRONG DAMAGING WIND GUSTS.

[00:02:04]BUT THE OTHER QUESTION IS HOW WELL IS THIS ABLE TO HOLD TOGETHER?

[00:02:07]SOME OF THE MODELS ACTUALLY HAVE THIS DECAYING PRETTY QUICKLY.

[00:02:09]ONCE IT MAKES IT CLOSER TO LAKE MICHIGAN, BUT WE’LL WANT TO KEEP A CLOSE EYE ON THIS JUST IN CASE IT DOES STAY A BIT MORE INTACT, AND THAT CAN PRODUCE SOME SEVERE WEATHER THROUGH THE OVERNIGHT.

[00:02:19]SO MAKE SURE YOU HAVE A GOOD WAY TO GET WEATHER ALERTS AND WEATHER WARNINGS.

[00:02:23]AS WE LOOK AT THE IMPACTS FOR THE OVERNIGHT HAIL, THAT’S VERY LOW.

[00:02:26]THE MAIN THING WILL BE DAMAGING WINDS.

[00:02:27]THAT’S THE MODERATE IMPACT LEVEL.

[00:02:29]TORNADOES CAN NEVER COMPLETELY RULE THOSE OUT, BUT THOSE ARE ON THE LOW SIDE AS WELL AS THE FLOOD THREAT.

[00:02:34]AND THEN AFTER ANOTHER DAY OF 80S IN THE FORECAST TOMORROW, WE COOL OFF A BIT WITH OUR DAYTIME HIGHS IN THE 50S AND 60S, WEDNESDAY, THURSDAY, FRIDAY, THEN BACK IN THE 70S FOR THE UPCOMING WEEKEND.

[00:02:44]SO HIGHS TODAY.

[00:02:45]I THINK A LOT OF US WILL ENJOY THIS OUTSIDE OF SOME OF THAT MORNING RAIN MID 80S FOR MILWAUKEE.

[00:02:51]WAUKESHA OCONOMOWOC UP TO 84 DEGREES.

[00:02:53]AND IT’S GOING TO BE PRETTY WINDY.

[00:02:55]DAY TO GUSTS UP CLOSER TO 30MPH, PERHAPS EVEN NEAR 40MPH IN SOME SPOTS.

[00:03:00]AND THEN OVERNIGHT TONIGHT, WE’VE GOT SOME SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS.

[00:03:03]SOME OF THOSE COULD BE STRONG RAIN, MAINLY AROUND MIDNIGHT THROUGH THE EARLY MORNING HOURS ON TUESDAY.

[00:03:07]AND THEN WE FINALLY START TO DRY OUT BY TUESDAY AFTERNOON.

[00:03:10]SO HERE’S A LOOK AT YOUR SEVEN DAY FORECAST AGAIN.

[00:03:14]TODAY IS AN IMPACT DAY 84 INLAND, 84 CLOSER TO THE LAKESHORE.

[00:03:18]WE’RE TRACKING THAT STORM CHANCE.

[00:03:19]AND THEN A WARM AND WINDY AFTERNOON.

[00:03:20]I DON’T THINK WE’RE GOING TO SEE A LOT OF STORMS OUT THERE THROUGH THE AFTERNOON.

[00:03:24]SO WHEN YOU SEE THAT SEVERE THREAT THAT WE SHOWED YOU, LEVEL TWO OUT OF FIVE, THAT’S MAINLY FOR OVERNIGHT INTO EARLY TUESDAY MORNING.

[00:03:30]SO NOTHING REALLY TO WORRY ABOUT THROUGH THE DAYTIME HOURS TODAY.

[00:03:33]AND THEN WE’RE GOING TO HIT A COOL STRETCH WEDNESDAY, THURSDAY, FRIDAY THE WEEKEND.

[00:03:36]HEY, BACK IN THE 70S
