Fire Weather Planning Forecast for Southern Wisconsin
National Weather Service Milwaukee/Sullivan WI
239 PM CDT Sat Apr 20 2024

.DISCUSSION...

Mixing heights up to 6000 ft, especially in south central
Wisconsin, will slowly fall into this evening. Westerly winds of
10 to 15 mph with gusts of 20 to 25 mph will also slowly diminish
into this evening. RH values will remain above 40 percent.

Sunday, clear skies and northwesterly winds are expected to bring
mixing heights around 6000 ft. In addition, plenty of sunshine
will bring high temperatures in the upper 50s to near 60 degrees,
leading to RH values between 25 and 30 percent across much of the
area. Relatively moist air aloft is currently expected to keep RH
values from falling farther than forecast. Winds will gust up to
20 mph once again.

Monday, winds shift southwesterly ahead of rain showers Monday
night. Expecting gusts of 20 to 25 mph again on Monday,
although mixing heights are expected to be lower, around 4000 ft.
RH values fall between 25 and 35 percent, with the highest values
near Lake Michigan. Temperatures will rise into the mid-60s.
