The forecast from FOX 17 Weather Ready Meteorologist Reece Cole: Areas along I-94 have received over 2" of rain in localized spots. This has led to flooding concerns this evening into Friday morning. As the front passes and widespread rain clears, muggy air remains in place through the weekend and into early next week. Friday will see the best shower chance near the state line, while Saturday looks like widespread rain and storms. We are under a MARGINAL RISK (1 out of 5) for Saturday's severe potential. Hot and humid conditions remain Sunday and Monday with highs near 90. Relief finally comes in the middle of next week! We may be able to start seeing the Perseid Meteors in the coming days, but they don't peak until August 12/13. This is an annual event and stems from debris from the tail of the comet Swift Tuttle. Stay tuned to the FOX 17 Weather Ready Team for your latest forecast updates.
