6:20 am Update: Storms with large hail continue to move through central Wisconsin this morning.  There have actually been reports of hail the size of baseball ( two inches or greater) out of Sauk County.  These storms continue to hold their own and are moving slowly to the east/southeast.  This movement will be watched as the low level jet begins to position itself into northern Illinois.  Conditions will be watched for the potential of a severe weather watch across southeast Wisconsin and northeast Illinois later this morning. 

5:30 am Update : Thunderstorms have formed across west-central and central Wisconsin this morning ahead of the low level jet and warm front.  While the general motion of these storms are to the northeast, some development may be possible south and southeast across southern Wisconsin and even stretching into northern Illinois.  As the front continues to lift north through this morning and afternoon our storm chance will diminish and the heat will be turned back on.  Temperatures this afternoon will reach the low 90s as a fairly strong upper level ridge builds east across the Great Lakes.  Today isn't going to be the only day where the high will reach 90° or better.  Look for this weather to last through Wednesday until a cold front comes through.
