First Alert Day - Storms Likely This Morning Into the Afternoon
By Delaney Boles,
2026-08-09Staying unsettled with a few rain/storm chances into mid-week. Trending drier and cooler with highs in the 70s to wrap up the week. MADISON, Wis. (WMTV) - Today is now a First Alert Day as strong to severe storms will be possible. This morning, we are watching a storm complex back to our west in Iowa and Minnesota. The expectation is that these storms will congeal into a line that should move into southern Wisconsin during the mid to late morning hours, then exiting to the east during the early afternoon hours. The Storm Prediction Center has southern Wisconsin under a level ⅕ and level ⅖ risk for severe weather. The area with the highest threat level is in a line from La Crosse to Madison to Milwaukee southward. If storms become severe, strong wind gusts will be the main threat. Small hail and an isolated weak spin-up tornado cannot be ruled out, either.
