A seasonably warm start to June

Western Minnesota may see a couple showers late Tuesday

The first day of June brings relatively quiet weather with mostly sunny skies and warm temperatures.

Tuesday forecast

Under clear skies overnight and light to calm winds, temperatures were able to drop slightly below average Tuesday morning. Most of Minnesota began the day in the 40s and 50s, but a couple northern spots did dip into the upper 30s.

Those clear skies mean lots of sunshine Tuesday, and along with dry air and light winds, Minnesota warms quickly through the day.  Highs will be a couple degrees above average, with most of the state in the 70s and a few 80s possible west.

The one exception to the quiet weather is western Minnesota, where there could be very isolated showers or storms by evening, and the otherwise light winds will be breezier near the North Dakota border.

Rain chances stay sparse the remained of the week, while hot weather returns.

That extended forecast will be updated around 9 a.m.
