Widely scattered thunderstorms dampened parts of Minnesota Sunday night. Early this Monday morning a scattering of storms lingers over the southeastern corner of this state. 

Monday will be a warmer, muggier day than the weather we enjoyed over the weekend. Look for afternoon high temperatures from the upper 70s in the northwest to the upper 80s in the Twin Cities area and the southeast. The Twin Cities should warm to about 88 with sunshine and a light southwest breeze. Dew points will be on the rise as well

Tuesday will be the least comfortable day this week. Highs again will range from the upper 70s northwest to the upper 80s southeast. Dew points will continue to climb. The dew point in the Twin Cities is likely to flirt with 70 Tuesday afternoon – that’s Floridian. 

Widely scattered thunderstorms are likely Monday night, Tuesday and Tuesday night but locations and timing are fuzzy. At this point, there is a marginal risk for severe weather for the 24-hour period ending at 7 a.m. on Tuesday.

Temperatures and dew points will back off on Wednesday and for the remainder of the week. 

A series of disturbances later in the week will bring the likelihood of more widespread rain across most of the state from Thursday into next weekend.
