Behind the front that helped cause Tuesday’s storms, the weather Wednesday will be drier, less humid and not as hot.
Wednesday’s forecast
The front that passed through Minnesota late Monday into Tuesday, has now passed entirely through the state. The drier air behind the front not only means sunnier skies, but the humidity is much lower. Slightly cooler air has also moved in, so it will not be as hot. Wednesday morning temperatures are in the 50s and 60s, and afternoon highs will be in the 70s and 80s.
This still puts much of the state 5 to 10 degrees above average, but is a break from the 90s and high heat indices many saw Monday and Tuesday.
By late Wednesday, western Minnesota could see a few isolated showers or storms ahead of more active weather on Thursday.
That extended forecast will be updated around 9:30 a.m.
