Sunday forecast

Local perspective:

Passing clouds and weak southern showers are blowing east across Minnesota with temperatures hovering in the 60s.

There won't be much pure sunshine this afternoon, as extra clouds will churn through the sky, but humidity levels will still stay noticeable and high temperatures will climb into the lower 80s.

A nearby cool front will begin to move into the area and keep the forecast unsettled, triggering some patchy afternoon thunderstorms.

These storms won't be as widespread or as intense as Saturday's storms, but a few will likely manage to reach severe criteria.

There is a low risk (Level 1) of severe storms this afternoon in the Twin Cities metro area, with the most likely timeframe being between 2 p.m. - 5 p.m.

There is also a slight risk (Level 2) for severe storms in far southeastern Minnesota, with the most likely timeframe being between 3 p.m. - 7 p.m.

The severe weather risk includes possible hail and strong winds.
