Julie Nelson from Freeport sent in these pictures looking to the north and west of the incoming rain/isolated thunder. Expecting mostly heavier rainfall, but a clap of thunder or two is possible.
The afternoon has been quiet and cool (compared to what temperatures typically are at the end of June). But that may be soon changing.
A line of thunderstorms, non-severe at the moment, are sliding into southwest Wisconsin. This line is forming ahead of a cold front and upper level low. Further back to the northwest, there were a couple severe thunderstorm warnings near the Wisconsin Dells. But as the line shifts southeast, it's encountering a little more of a stable air mass. The Storm Prediction Center does have parts of southern Wisconsin and northwest Illinois under a slight risk for strong/severe storms as there isn't much of a 'lid' on our atmosphere. But I feel our threat for gusty thunderstorms will continue to decrease through the evening.
Look for this line to move into southwest Wisconsin between now and 7pm, and northern Illinois between 7pm and 10pm. The First Warn Weatherisk will remain Moderate until Midnight and then drop back down to Low for the overnight.
