Wet start Tuesday; red flag day at Lake Michigan

It's a wet start Tuesday with periods of light rain showers or mist. A few showers could last all the way through lunch time, but it dries out in the second half of the day.

Clouds begin to clear later tonight.

Temperatures only warm into the low/mid 70s this afternoon.

There is a red flag for swimming Tuesday at Lake Michigan. Do not plan on swimming today, as waves could build up to 6 feet. It is back to a green flag on the lake Wednesday, but the red flag is once again expected Thursday.

Plan on a cooler start to Wednesday, as lows tonight dip into the mid 50s.

Wednesday's forecast is dry and sunny with a high near 80.

Thursday additional rain chances are likely. It'll be a breezy day with highs in the upper 70s.

Friday is a calmer, sunny day to end the week.

We'll crank up the heat over the weekend, climbing into the mid 80s Saturday and soaring near 90 Sunday.

Highs stay near 90 Monday and Tuesday before a little relief in the middle of next week.

Tonight: Clearing skies. Low 54.

Wednesday: Sunny. High 80.
