An isolated shower may hang on across parts of eastern Minnesota and western Wisconsin. A weak boundary will push east towards northwestern Minnesota. Showers and thunderstorms possible for this region Saturday night. 

Cloud cover will begin decreasing for eastern and southeastern Minnesota. Clouds remain for northwestern Minnesota through Sunday morning.

Low temperatures will drop into the mid-60s for the metro area. Cooler upper 50s for the north shore. 

An increase in southerly winds on Sunday will lead to temperatures climbing into the mid-80s. 

A change in our mid to upper atmospheric pattern will allow several disturbances to move through the region. The southwest-to-northwest flow pattern will enhance instability and maintain temperatures in the 80s.

Our summery weather pattern continues for another week.
