Fire Weather Planning Forecast for Southern Wisconsin

.DISCUSSION...
The majority of this ongoing shower activity will depart from
west to east through 8 AM. However, expect a narrow band of light
rain to linger along the surface front through midday. This front
is expected to remain stationary through mid day and should stay
just south of a Wisconsin Dells to Madison to Janesville line. It
should actually drift southwestward through the day and remain
outside of south central WI tonight.
The steady northeasterly winds will diminish by late morning. Low
clouds will persist over southwest WI through at least the middle
of the day, but we should see them diminish near the lakeshore as
low level dry air returns.
Min RH on Thursday will be in the 45 to 55 percent range, with
increasing southeast winds in the afternoon.
