May 6, 2026 – West Bend, Wi – Another chilly evening on tap with a frost warning in effect starting after 1 a.m. Thursday, May 7. And if Mother Nature isn’t quirky enough this Spring… look at this Mother Goose taking her family for a waddle. Just wait for the final safety soldier bringing up the rear. How many little ones did you count?
As far as the forecast, it sure has been an entertaining mixed bag. Sunny skies in the morning and brilliant sunsets. See below.

Deanna Schmidt from Schmidt Century Farm also captured a brilliant Wisconsin sunset from atop St. Anthony Road.
