Today was beautiful. Right now it is 65 degrees and cloudy, the high today was 78 almost 80! Tonight is a high of 53 with 60% of precipitation.
The current temps right now are in the 60s. That is wonderful I can't believe it got up to the high 70s today when we had snow last week, ah well this is WI. Summer Weather!

This is the current surface map as you can see there is a high right above us and its pushing some rain toward us as well.
 

This is the current wind map. Not a lot of movement over WI area but high gusts are seen in the west. 

The Precipitation map shows us that we have/will be getting rain but not to too too much.

Surface wind data comes from the National Digital Forecast Database. These are near-term forecasts, revised once per hour. So what you're seeing is a living portrait.

The weather today looks really nice a high of 77! And right now its 56.
According to this surface map, we are looking at clear skies for a while.

There is a high up in Canada, and it looks like the East will get some rain however the Midwest and especially WI look clear for now.

This map shows the dew points for the nation. condensation occurs when the temperature of the air is lowered to its dew point. And seeing that these dew points are less then the temp we should be fine for rain, as of today.
