Justin Liles: Warmer with showers
Our weather is going to be looking at more of the same conditions. Cooler lake breeze, scattered showers and storms, fog, and much warmer farther inland away from the lake. Tonight showers and storms are possible with a warm front approaching. Conditions won’t be bad enough for the storms to be severe, but some smaller sized hail is possible.
Some of these storms may persist overnight into Wednesday morning. High pressure sliding east will start to put the majority of the Northland under southerly flow. Temperatures will warm into the 70s by Thursday here in the Twin Ports and all over the region. Once again, with enough daytime heating some scattered storms are possible Thursday. Most of this activity will likely stay to the south of the Twin Ports. Rain potential looks to stick around for the start of the Minnesota Fishing Opener.
Rain chances are greatest in central Minnesota and Wisconsin Friday and Saturday. By Sunday, skies will be quieter. Temperatures also look to cool down this weekend all over the region with warmer weather returning by Monday.
