Mother Nature quiets herself after a volatile weather day on Wednesday

 

MILWAUKEE (CBS 58) -- Expect a much quieter weather day today as all the rough weather moves away from the region. 

We can't rule out a few scattered showers and thunder showers with a dangling system just to our south.

But we don't have the upper air energy we did on Wednesday. 

But all in all we dodged a bullet.  We didn't have widespread reports of damage, just a few active warnings.

In fact, for the first time this season, our National Weather Service office issued a tornado warning. It was for Columbia County. 

Places in Sheboygan and Fond du Lac Counties were dealing with some localized flooding after 2-3" fell in the last 24 hours.

On Friday, there's still the chance for a pop up shower. 

But all in all, it looks very nice for the weekend with highs in the upper 70s to low 80s. 

A warmup looks likely for much of next week with highs well in the 80s.
