    MILWAUKEE (CBS 58)--Better weather to close out the weekend and start another work week. Highs on Sunday will be in the 70s, but they'll back off on Monday with an onshore wind flow. There will be a few more clouds later Sunday afternoon with a weak disturbance moving through the area. It'll be a bit breezy too. Do look for a midweek surge ahead of a stronger storm system to impact the area on Thursday with showers and some storms. Highs Wednesday and Thursday will be in the 80s.

These @NicoletKnights graduates know how to tell a story and work a camera. They even made a documentary about gun violence, receiving some national recognition. I’ll tell their story Sunday at 7 AM on @CBS58 @cspan https://t.co/b9J8Cc5yNe
