Our average Twin Cities high temp this time of year is 63 degrees. I’m expecting metro area highs to reach the upper 60s to around 70 this Sunday afternoon.

Winds will also be gusty near any thunderstorms that develop.

An updated Updraft blog with details on the coming week will be posted around 10 a.m. today.
