Minnesota Braces for Storms, Then Calm Returns
25 Aug
Summary
- Showers and storms to impact central and western Minnesota Tuesday morning.
- Marginal risk for severe storms with damaging winds and hail Tuesday.
- Quiet weather expected Wednesday through Friday before weekend storms.
Central and western Minnesota can expect showers and storms on Tuesday morning, with activity diminishing as it moves eastward. There is a slight possibility of these storms reaching the Twin Cities between 6 a.m. and 10 a.m.
High temperatures are projected to reach the mid-80s on Tuesday. As the day progresses, storms are expected to reform, particularly along and east of Interstate 35, extending into western Wisconsin. A marginal risk, rated 1 out of 5, exists for severe storms that could bring damaging winds, hail, or an isolated tornado.
Following the unsettled Tuesday, a period of quiet and comfortable weather is anticipated from Wednesday through Friday. Daytime highs during this period will range from the upper 70s to the low 80s. However, this calm will be short-lived as a more active weather pattern is forecast to develop over the weekend, increasing the likelihood of showers and storms.
