A pair of low pressure systems is set to impact southeast Wisconsin on Monday, May 20, and Tuesday, May 21, raising concerns for severe weather conditions. Here’s what to expect:

Monday’s Forecast

• Strong to severe storms have already hit parts of the NEWS.ORG 6 viewing area due to the first low pressure system.
• An unstable warm front will continue to generate storms later on Monday and into the evening.

Tuesday’s Outlook

• Another low pressure system will move in overnight, accompanied by a warm front, leading to a round of strong to severe storms on Tuesday morning.
• A potential gap between morning and evening rounds could further prime the atmosphere for severe weather.
• The Storm Prediction Center has issued a Marginal to Slight Risk for Monday and an Enhanced Risk for Tuesday, covering more than half of Wisconsin.

Potential Impacts

• Thunderstorms are likely on Monday afternoon, tapering off by the evening.
• Tuesday may see one round of storms in the morning, with dry conditions expected later in the day, potentially fueling a second round of severe weather in the evening.
