Green Bay, Wis. – A Red Flag Warning remains in effect Monday for northern Wisconsin as dry air and warm temperatures elevate wildfire risks, but a pattern shift brings daily storm chances starting Tuesday and peaking Thursday.
According to the National Weather Service in Green Bay, showers and isolated thunderstorms are possible each day from Tuesday through Friday, with the strongest potential for severe weather arriving Thursday as a cold front cuts through the Midwest. Highs will hover in the 70s and 80s through midweek, then dip into the upper 50s and 60s by Friday.
Cities including Green Bay, Appleton, and Wausau could see scattered rainfall Tuesday and Wednesday, while Thursday carries a higher threat for strong storms and localized downpours. Road visibility, outdoor activities, and travel plans may be disrupted. Drivers are urged to use caution during commutes and monitor changing radar conditions.
Fire weather concerns remain high through Monday, particularly in Vilas and Oneida counties, where winds and low humidity persist. Residents are advised to avoid outdoor burning and report any signs of wildfire immediately.
Rain chances continue into Friday morning, with cooler air settling in by the weekend. Stay tuned for updated thunderstorm outlooks later this week.
