Severe weather continues to move across the Northland Tuesday
Storms continue to move across the Northland Tuesday afternoon bringing heavy rain, thunderstorms and even Tornado Warnings to the region.
There are multiple Warnings posted for Northern Minnesota.
The storm development is influenced by a surge of warm moisture advection in front of a cold front. As temperatures climb to the 80s the warming will push instability levels as the system develops strong to severe thunderstorms for the Northland. There will be a muggy feel for the afternoon hours as the humidity lingers in the area.
As the evening continues, the storms will weaken, and by Wednesday morning dry conditions will arrive. A brief high-pressure system will pass Wednesday and into Thursday morning that will bring relief from the rain and temperatures will fall and become comfortable in the low-mid 70s. The mostly sunny skies will feel pleasant after such a dreary and wet week.
More rain and active weather is forecasted for this upcoming weekend, including additional chances for some heavy rainfall.
