.DISCUSSION...

Apart from an isolated sprinkle or light rain shower early this
morning, precipitation-free conditions prevail through the
beginning of next week across southern Wisconsin. Daytime high
temperatures will gradually climb back toward normal through
Tuesday. A strong cold front will push across the region on
Wednesday, bringing chances for widespread showers and
thunderstorms to the area. Cooler and below-normal temperatures
will settle into the region behind the front late next week.
