Thursday remains comfortable but heat due to return starting this weekend
MN weather: Weekend brings heat and potential for storms
Thursday will be another comfortable day but the weekend brings a return to the heat and some storm changes. Cody Matz has your forecast.
(FOX 9) - Thursday is set to be a "rinse and repeat" of Wednesday with slightly warmer temps and some more sunshine. But the comfortable weather won't last long as we head into the weekend.
Heat returns
What we know:
Expect a typical July day, as temperatures and humidity return to seasonal norms. Temperatures will reach 84 degrees in the metro with dew points in the middle 60s, while northern and western sections could see borderline upper 80s.
A weak boundary passing through northern Minnesota could provide scattered thunderstorms late in the day into Friday night. We will monitor the potential for stronger storms up north, but they are expected to fall apart before they reach the metro, staying north of the 94 corridor.
Weekend forecast
What's next:
The weekend starts with lots of sunshine, turning downright hot and steamy.
The 90s are likely to return on Saturday, potentially kicking off another stretch of 90-degree weather.
There is a chance for isolated storms across the eastern zones on Sunday night.
