A squall line is expected to move through on Saturday with potentially damaging wind gusts and torrential rainfall

- Models this morning show a squall line developing overnight across Wisconsin and Minnesota and marching southeast tomorrow morning into northern Illinois. This squall line will move through the area from 9am-2pm with potentially damaging wind gusts of 60-70 mph and very heavy rainfall. Very low risk for a brief tornado or two. After this clears out tomorrow afternoon, we will become very warm and humid, and a few more storms will develop tomorrow evening and could pose a marginal threat for strong wind gusts and hail. The main focus tomorrow will be this squall line that moves through around lunchtime.
