Today on Lake Effect, we dive into the Milwaukee County budget and explore why there’s a multi-million-dollar deficit. We learn about Sickle Cell Disease and how it largely impacts people living in southeastern Wisconsin. We tell you about a mobile piece of artwork in Milwaukee that focuses on curbing reckless driving. Plus, share some beach science.
