Temperatures will start a slow and modest warming trend. We’ll continue with more sunshine Thursday and Friday. Isolated thunder is possible this weekend.

Continued dry and pleasant weather with lots of sunshine Thursday and Friday 

If you’ve liked the last couple of days, we have a couple more in store for you. Highs Thursday will be in the upper 70s nearly statewide. Those readings are still a touch cooler than normal. Look for more sunshine also. 

Overnight temps won’t be quite as cool with lows mainly in the 50s to near 60 in the Twin Cities. 

Highs Friday will be in the low 80s for most of the state, with just a few clouds and mostly dry weather.

There will be a few showers or a thunderstorm possible in northwestern and western Minnesota Friday afternoon.

Moisture will start a modest increase heading into the weekend with dew points rising from the comfortable 40s and 50s into the more muggy 60s.

That will start to create some isolated-to-spotty thunder chances Saturday for mainly northern and western Minnesota.

Sunday will see a chance of spotty storms nearly statewide.
