, the Appleton area is at an enhanced risk for severe weather May 15.

The forecast says storms will form over western Wisconsin and southeast Minnesota between 1 and 4 p.m., before pushing into central and northeast Wisconsin between 4 and 9 p.m.

“Six to 7 o’clock looks to be the target time for Green Bay and Appleton to see the strongest of severe storms,” said Scott Berschback, meteorologist for the National Weather Service Green Bay. “And then they quickly move out there, very quickly. They’re quick-moving storms, so once they get here, they’ll race through the area within an hour or two, so they’re gone by 8 o’clock.”

All hazards for severe weather are possible, including tornadoes, 2-inch large hail, and strong, damaging winds.

The Appleton area currently has a 80% chance of precipitation May 15. Berschback also said the area could get “a quick” half inch of rain.

Appleton received a combined 1.14 inches of rain during the first three days of May, but nothing in the next 12 days.
