Weather in June
June ushers in the official start of summer in
Wisconsin, featuring a more consistent pattern of warm weather. In northern regions of the state, temperatures usually range from 50°F (10°C) to 75°F (23.9°C), while southern areas enjoy a spectrum from 60°F (15.6°C) to 85°F (29.4°C). The marked increase in warmth compared to
May is evident and sets the stage for outdoor activities.
Precipitation continues to be a factor, albeit less so than in May. Rainfall is still prevalent, and the state experiences a notable number of thunderstorms. June is typically the rainiest month in Wisconsin, particularly in the south and east. The risk of flooding remains, especially in areas close to rivers and lakes, due to the combination of lingering spring rains and summer storms.
Cities like Madison and Milwaukee begin to see an uptick in tourism, as June is among the more desirable months for travel. Near Lake Michigan, temperatures remain moderated by the lake's influence, especially in Milwaukee, creating an often cooler and more pleasant atmosphere than inland areas experience.
Daylight reaches its peak during the month, aligning with the summer solstice. The ample sunshine not only benefits outdoor adventurers but also positively impacts the state's agricultural yield, particularly for crops that require more sun.
Unlike May, snow is practically unheard of in June, even in the northernmost regions. The weather leans toward the hot and humid side, especially in the southern regions, but rarely crosses 90°F (32.2°C). With June serving as both the gateway to summer and one of the most agreeable months climate-wise, it holds a particular allure for both residents and visitors keen on enjoying Wisconsin's natural beauty and outdoor amenities.
