Scattered showers and thunderstorms are ongoing in southeastern Wisconsin Sunday morning. Areas south of I-94 have seen heavier downpours and more frequent lightning. Widespread rain continues through the morning and into the early afternoon as a cold front sweeps through Wisconsin.

Most places may pick up 0.5" - 1" of rainfall. Highs only top out in the upper 60s and lower 70s.



Northerly winds take hold after the front passes - ushering in cooler & drier air. Northerly winds could gust as high as 25mph leading to choppy conditions on Lake Michigan. Overnight lows fall into the mid-50s as clouds gradually dissipate.
