An upper low is essentially cool air aloft.
When it moves over the relatively warm and moist surface, some pop-up, instability showers and thunder are possible in the afternoon.
This will also keep temperatures below normal through Friday; mainly in the 70s but parts of northeast Minnesota will see just upper 60s.
Heat and humidity return this weekend
Muggy air will make its way back into Minnesota over the weekend, especially by Sunday.
An upper level ridge will return to Minnesota brining above normal temperatures and likely a few 90s heading into next week. Overall, the pattern will get hot and occasionally humid again.
