Happy Friday, Northland! Temperatures were once again pretty typical if not a bit on th3e cool side for the middle of October with highs in the 40s and lower 50s. This time around, it came with showers that brought persistent rainfall, with many I northwest Wisconsin and the Upper Peninsula seeing 0.75” to 1”+ of rain. Most of the rain has moved out but not all, as lake effect rain will continue to fall for the South Shore through the morning before subsiding once we get a little later in the day. For the rest of the Northland, we will get plenty of sunshine starting later this morning. Cold air moving in out of the north is what is bringing this lake effect, and it has brought some quite strong winds. Winds are sustaining over 15 mph with gusts up to 30 mph or more. Over Lake Superior, winds are even stronger, which is why we have a Gale Warning in place until 1 P.M. CDT today. As we get later on into the day, the winds will calm before shifting out of the southwest overnight. With the cold air pushing in, highs will stay mainly in the 40s and lower 50s despite the sunshine. Overnight lows will dip into the lower 30s and 20s, but we will start to warm up into Saturday with the southerly flow.

Happy Thursday, Northland! Yesterday was very much in line to what we have seen much of this week, with near seasonal temperatures and not too much sunshine, though the sun was able to poke through at times. Due to the low clouds hanging around, didn’t get quite as cool this morning as anticipated, and we will continue to see not just clouds but rain as well as two systems move into the region. Much of the shower action for today will take place in northwest Wisconsin and the Upper Peninsula, with scattered showers on the back side of the Canadian low moving through this evening and overnight. Most of us will see clearing conditions Friday, though lake effect rain will persist for the South Shore early on. Much of the Northland can see up to 0.1”, with the Arrowhead and Northwest Wisconsin seeing up to 0.25” to 0.5”, and the South Shore into the Upper Peninsula seeing over 0.5” in spots potentially. With the clouds and rain, most of us will stay in the 40s to low 50s for highs.
