Storm Threat to the North

Storm threat will be high to our north this afternoon as an area of low pressure moves across the U.S. and Canadian border.  Storms currently moving through Minnesota will continue into northern Wisconsin and intensify as they do.  With the upper level winds centered over the northern Great Lakes and a cold front coming through, the Storm Prediction Center has highlighted much of Wisconsin in a moderate risk for severe weather this afternoon.  While the tornado and hail threat will be high the greatest threat will be the wind.  The cold front will stay to the west through much of the day so we'll just be dealing with the heat and humidity.  Later this evening we'll have to see how these storms hold together because a few stronger ones could move through overnight.  Storm threat will continue into Thursday afternoon before clearing the Stateline Thursday night.
