Minnesota Braces for Severe Storms, Breezy Winds

Breezy winds are expected to sweep across the Twin Cities on Monday as a cold front makes its approach. While the metro area will experience seasonable highs in the mid-80s with a slight rise in humidity and wind gusts up to 30 mph, other parts of Minnesota are under threat of severe storms. Northwestern Minnesota has already experienced some storms and anticipates more later in the day, with the potential for severe conditions including wind and hail. This weather pattern is expected to shift by Tuesday, with only spotty showers and storms possible in the metro area in the morning. The rest of the week is forecasted to be dry with highs in the upper 70s, returning to more typical seasonal conditions.
