Hot with extended air quality alert southeast

An air quality alert has been extended for southeast Minnesota through 9 p.m. Friday due to elevated ozone. Air quality is forecast to be unhealthy for sensitive groups for southeastern and northeast Minnesota.

Friday will again be hot in southeast Minnesota with cooler readings in the north and west.

Scattered showers and thunderstorms into the weekend

Showers and thunderstorms will mainly develop across central, northern and western Minnesota Friday with isolated activity farther east. Heading into Saturday and Sunday that chance develops statewide, especially late Saturday.

There’s a slight risk of severe storms in southern Minnesota Saturday evening, which has been rare so far this season.

Cooler temperatures will follow Sunday into early next week.
