2025 Milwaukee area floods

On August 9–10, 2025, severe flash floods impacted the U.S. city of Milwaukee and its surrounding areas. The suburb of Wauwatosa was particularly affected. The floods were the result of an unusual weather system that dropped record-setting rain into the area; it was the second-most recorded rain Milwaukee had ever seen over a two-day period. At least two people drowned when the Kinnickinnic River was flooding, and major property damages were reported around the region. The Wisconsin State Fair canceled its final day after significant flooding. Wisconsin Governor Tony Evers declared a state of emergency to assist in cleanup efforts, and US President Donald Trump's administration granted one of two requests for disaster relief funds.
