The pattern remains very warm with temperatures averaging 5 to 10 degrees above normal through the week. We’ll have spotty showers Monday with better chances later in the week. 

Spotty showers Monday with better chances Wednesday night into Thursday 

Consider yourself lucky if you receive some additional showers or thunder today. There will be spotty chance of rain and thunder, especially in central and western Minnesota, closer to a nearly stationary low. 

Temperatures will be in the 70s and 80s again Monday afternoon, still a bit above normal. We’ll still have some scattered areas of mid- and high-level cloud cover keeping temperatures a little cooler in central and southern Minnesota. 

Temperatures will warm up a bit more Tuesday as we see clearer skies. Highs will be in the 80s pretty much statewide except near Lake Superior.

A clipper-type, upper-level disturbance and weak cool front moves through the region late Wednesday into Thursday with another disturbance behind it for Friday. 

While not necessarily a deficit-erasing rainfall, it could deliver at least some needed rain. Most forecast models deliver under a half-inch through early Friday, but there will be some locally higher amounts possible with thunderstorms. 

Overall we remain warm through the week into the weekend with temperatures potentially trending upward into “hot territory” by the weekend into early next week.
