GREEN BAY, WI (WTAQ) – Get ready to sweat big-time as you pound the pavement during Saturday’s 41st annual Bellin Run.
The 10k race weaves through the streets of Green Bay and Allouez starting at 8 a.m. along South Webster Avenue outside Bellin Health Hospital.
FOX 11 Meteorologist Pete Petoniak says temps will be around 63 degrees around 7a.m. and will be heating up throughout the morning.
“At the start of the race, I’m calling for 66 degrees for temperature. It will be a little bit humid…the dew point is going to be about 58; that’s when you’re starting to feel it a little bit.”
Around 9 a.m. expect sunshine and 71, with windy conditions kicking in.
“As the day goes on tomorrow, it’s going to become very windy. South-southwest winds will be 20-30 miles an hour in the afternoon, gusting to 40 miles an hour. That’s going to bring up some very, very warm air. Our high will be about 87 degrees tomorrow with mostly sunny skies and we’ll really feel the humidity kick in, in the afternoon,” Petoniak said.
Although it’s going to be hot and humid, Petoniak says it won’t be as swelting as last year’s race.
“At 8 a.m. last year, it was 74 degrees and the dew point was 66. I mean, that’s getting in to the oppressive category with the dew points and the temperatures and it was 76 at 9 a.m. last year.”
Petoniak says we can expect the hot temperatures to stick around through next Tuesday.
