Tracking storms in western MN
What we know:
After some isolated and scattered storms in the morning hours, another round of storms is possible in the evening hours as a cold front rolls in.
This will be focused mostly across the Dakotas, as well as parts of far western Minnesota – especially the closer you get to the Dakotas border.
What's next:
The risk of storms will continue on Thursday and Friday and stretch into the metro on both days, with the potential of a level one risk.
We'll see how much of the remnants of the western storms can survive the drier air moving and roll into the metro Thursday morning. But we will wake up to some showers as we wake up on Thursday. Chances for storms return in the evening hours for central and southern Minnesota.
Seven-day forecast:
We will dry things up once we get past Friday, just in time for your weekend. It will be quite warm with highs in the middle 80s, and then we will certainly see summer-style heat and humidity next week, with a high of 85 on Monday and 86 on Tuesday.
