Showers and storms move across northern Minnesota Wednesday, some of which will bring high wind and hail, while the rest of the state remains warm and sunny.
Wednesday’s forecast
Temperatures are starting off slightly higher Wednesday compared with Tuesday morning, with most of the state in the 50s and 60s. The day overall stays above average, with highs in the 80s for most of Minnesota and 70s in the Arrowhead.
For most of the state, including the Twin Cities, Wednesday will be another quiet and mostly sunny day.
However, instability impacting northern Minnesota is bringing showers and storms across northwestern Minnesota as of 7 a.m., and those storms continue east through the day.
There have already been some isolated strong storms bringing hail, and that severe weather potential shifts to the Arrowhead later Wednesday with both an isolated high wind and large hail risk.
Storm chances become more widespread toward the end of the week. That extended forecast will be updated around 9 a.m.
