Green Bay, Wisconsin – Severe storms are expected to rapidly develop by 6 p.m. Monday, bringing the threat of 2-inch hail, 60 mph wind gusts, and possible tornadoes across central and northeast Wisconsin.
According to the National Weather Service in Green Bay, an Enhanced Risk (level 3 of 5) is in place for much of the region, including Wausau, Stevens Point, Appleton, and Green Bay. Storms are expected to form along a warm front late this afternoon, then track east through the evening hours, with the most intense activity occurring between 6 p.m. and 1 a.m. Tuesday.
Communities along Highway 41 and Interstate 43 corridors could see the strongest storms, with damaging winds capable of downing trees and power lines. Large hail up to 2 inches in diameter may damage vehicles and roofs, while localized heavy rainfall could trigger street flooding in low-lying areas.
