The weekend at Erin Hills is not all wet, but showers and storms are still possible from time to time.

The weekend is here, and that means the final two rounds of the U.S. Open at Erin Hills Golf Course just outside Milwaukee. The majority of the weekend weather forecast looks dry, but Saturday into Sunday there are chances of scattered showers and storms.

SATURDAY — Round 3 of U.S. Open:
Saturday still looks like the wettest day of the tournament with the highest chance of seeing areas of showers and storms. Temperatures in the afternoon should reach the low 80s, but chances for showers and thunderstorms increase for the mid-to-late afternoon. While I am not ruling out a passing shower in the morning or midday, the bulk of the rain chances hold off until late afternoon and into early evening. Winds will be SW to west 5 to 15 mph

SUNDAY — Round 4 of U.S. Open:
Sunday will be drier than Saturday with just a slight chance of a shower or storm under partly to mostly sunny skies. It will be cooler, as temperatures only rise into the mid 70s during the afternoon. It will also be the windiest day of the tournament. Winds will be out of the west between 10 to 20 mph, and we could get gusts near 25 mph.
