The first round of storms will move through early Saturday morning. This will be in the form of a decaying line of storms moving out of central Wisconsin. Severe weather is not anticipated with this line of storms, but general storm activity and heavier showers can be expected. The best coverage will be Madison and points north and west with activity becoming much more isolated to the south and east. Storm activity should taper off by mid to late morning with clearing skies quickly moving back in.

As sunshine takes over during the afternoon and evening, temperatures will begin to soar. Highs will climb into the lower and middle 90s with high humidity levels. Factor in the heat and humidity and heat index values will be into the triple digits. This is the threshold that heat related illnesses become a concern. Take it easy Saturday and don't over exert yourself. Stay hydrated and try to find cooling when possible.

HEAT ADVISORY: Temperatures on Saturday will top out into the lower 90s with heat index values into the triple digits!

Another round of storms is expected late Saturday night and will likely contain strong to severe storms. Right now, gusty winds, hail, and heavy rainfall are the main threats. Storm activity will move in after midnight more post places from northwest to southeast. Wet weather should taper off after sunrise Sunday with sunshine returning by midday as conditions become hot and steamy once again.

STORM POTENTIAL: As if there wasn't enough to worry about with the heat, strong and severe storms are possible Saturday night.
