Cooler air settles in for the weekend
A cool blast drops temperatures
After a stormy Thursday it’ll be cooler Friday with lots of clouds and blustery northwest winds. That will set us up for a chilly weekend.
Storms produced large hail Thursday
The hail that came through the Twin Cities was just some of several severe reports Thursday.
The hail coated lawns and roads for a period of time late Thursday afternoon as storms quickly developed in the west metro and moved east dropping up to golf ball size hail in North St. Paul and Baldwin, Wis., to name a few.
Cooler air flows in for the weekend
After the storms and basically two weeks of summer weather, we’re in for a weekend chill. Temperatures Friday will be in the 60s south and 50s north.

Northwest winds will be blustery Friday as the chill sets in making it feel cooler.
Saturday will bring even cooler temperatures with highs in the 40s north and 50s south.
Saturday night will bring frost for much of northern Minnesota. While not unusual in mid to late May there, it’s a stark contrast from the last two weeks of warmth.
Temperatures should slowly rebound next week in time for the holiday weekend.
