Discussion:
This evening, scattered showers and thunderstorms have popped up in a line from around Ashland to Wausau.  This activity is expected to gradually end by around sunset.  A complex of thunderstorms is expected to develop overnight in northern MN and move south-southeast into far northern WI through early morning.  The rest of northern and central WI may see spotty showers or thunderstorms at times during the day on Tuesday.  A cold front will swing through Tuesday night, and that is when the main chance of stronger thunderstorms would be.  The highest chance will be in northern Wisconsin.  Gusty northwest winds will usher in somewhat cooler air for Wednesday.  There could be some spotty, mainly light showers from time to time, especially in northern Wisconsin.  Yet another front will push through later Thursday with a chance of scattered thunderstorms.  While much of Friday could be dry, it looks unsettled again from Friday night into the weekend, with some early indications of some heavy rain possible during that time frame .  No frost is expected over the entire period.  Forecast confidence is moderate.
