MILWAUKEE (CBS 58)--Hold onto your hats as we kick off St. Patrick's Day weekend.  We'll have gusts from the southwest from 50 to 60 mph.  There's a High Wind Warning in place for the morning hours across the metro.  It becomes a Wind Advisory during the afternoon as temperatures drop fast from the 60s into the 40s.  Believe it or not, there are two opportunities for snow, albeit light.  Sunday morning and into Thursday morning.  Spring starts Thursday at 4:01 a.m. Expect lots of 40s and 50s for highs this coming week as well.
