All of southeastern Wisconsin is under a severe thunderstorm watch until 9 PM. As these storms travel east, they will likely intensify; the primary concerns are hail and strong wind gusts.

A cold front driving these storms through will pass later this evening, ending the severe weather threat. Overnight, skies will become mostly clear and Sunday will be mostly sunny and pleasant.
