NBC 26 Weather Forecast

But the main threat arrives after 7pm... and it is a rare and dangerous "moderate risk" for widespread severe storms. This system will likely turn into a derecho, as is slams into central Wisconsin this evening, remaining strong through 1am. It's bringing the chances for widespread hurricane force damaging winds, dangerous large hail, frequent lightning and even the potential for tornadoes and flooding rain. Stay safe. Behind the storms, sunshine will be abundant and cooler weather in the upper 70s and lower 80s to close out the week. The next chance for storms arrives Saturday, with cooler and sunny weather behind it to close out the weekend and as we push into next week.
